Chen Jun 6f0d9d3e74 tracing: Fix a kmemleak false positive in tracing_map
[ Upstream commit f25667e5980a4333729cac3101e5de1bb851f71a ]

Doing the command:
  echo 'hist:key=common_pid.execname,common_timestamp' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xxx/trigger

Triggers many kmemleak reports:

The reason is elts->pages[i] is alloced by get_zeroed_page.
and kmemleak will not scan the area alloced by get_zeroed_page.
The address stored in elts->pages will be regarded as leaked.

That is, the elts->pages[i] will have pointers loaded onto it as well, and
without telling kmemleak about it, those pointers will look like memory
without a reference.

To fix this, call kmemleak_alloc to tell kmemleak to scan elts->pages[i]
