The only reference we store to this memory is in the form of a physical address, so kmemleak can't see it. Add a kmemleak_not_leak() annotation. It's probably useful to be able to look at a dump of these things either via debugfs or similar, and thus we could at some point store them in some kind of table and therefore get rid of this annotation.
