This is a copy-n-paste from just above which is inside a:

#if !defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC) && !defined(CONFIG_KMEMCHECK)

This gets really confusing to figure out which one of these options will
rule.  Maybe it's just time to add a kmemcheck_active() function which
gets #ifdef'd to 0 if the config option is off.

Didn't you _just_ reference this?  Either it's unnecessary, or this code
doesn't compile.

This is pretty confusing.  If I see "kmemcheck_on" and
"kmemcheck_enabled" in the code, it's hard to figure out which one to
trust and infer what they were _supposed_ to be doing.

Please add some documentation for these, at least.  The commit message
isn't enough.

I'd also suggest breaking this up in to at least two pieces: one which
adds the functions to check at runtime if we want to use kmemcheck, and
then a second one to actually add this tunable.
