Hmmm.. Then this commit may have fixed it:

Meelis,
Please grab this patch below and see if it fixes your 'hang on boot'
with Christoph's other slab patch + slab debug.

slab: fix to calm down kmemleak warning
After using struct page as slab management, we should not call
kmemleak_scan_area(), since struct page isn't the tracking object of
kmemleak. Without this patch and if CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK is enabled,
so many kmemleak warnings are printed.
