Ah, thanks for catching it! I see what I missed, I should pre-allocate those
empty entries in order to make it work correctly.

I didn't catch this because this was tested on a production machine where
we can't afford CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y for obvious performance
concerns.

Anyway, I will fix this and send v2.

Thanks!
