This commit has other problems, so we also need the following commits:
commit dce5b0bdeec61bdbee56121ceb1d014151d5cab1

mm/kmemleak.c: fix unused-function warning
The only references outside of the #ifdef have been removed, so now we
get a warning in non-SMP configurations:
mm/kmemleak.c:1404:13: error: unused function 'scan_large_block'
[-Werror,-Wunused-function]
Add a new #ifdef around it.

section")
