mm/mempool.c: update the kmemleak stack trace for mempool allocations
When mempool_alloc() returns an existing pool object, kmemleak_alloc() is no longer called and the stack trace corresponds to the original object allocation. This patch updates the kmemleak allocation stack trace for such objects to make it more useful for debugging.
