Situation is even worse, leaked dentry does not allow to free related 
namespaces.

VvS:  without --namespace perf works correctly

[root@localhost ~]# grep namespace /proc/slabinfo

VvS: with --namespace perf leaks namespaces

[root@localhost ~]# perf record  -q  --namespace unshare -n -U  -p --fork true
[root@localhost ~]# grep namespace /proc/slabinfo
pid_namespace          1     12   2568   12    8 : tunables    0    0    0 : 
slabdata      1      1      0
user_namespace         1     39    824   39    8 : tunables    0    0    0 : 
slabdata      1      1      0
net_namespace          1      5   6272    5    8 : tunables    0    0    0 : 
slabdata      1      1      0

VvS: ... and once again, to be sure

[root@localhost ~]# perf record  -q  --namespace unshare -n -U  -p --fork true
[root@localhost ~]# grep namespace /proc/slabinfo
pid_namespace          2     12   2568   12    8 : tunables    0    0    0 :

kmemleak also detects leaks dentry, inode, related structures and namespaces
