[PATCH 1/1] module: check if memory leak by module.

[Maninder Singh <maninder1.s@samsung.com>]

This patch adds new config VMALLOC_MEMORY_LEAK to check if any
module which is going to be unloaded is doing vmalloc memory leak.

Logs:-
[  129.336368] Module vmalloc is getting unloaded before doing vfree
[  129.336371] Memory still allocated: addr:0xffffc90001461000 - 0xffffc900014c7000, pages 101
[  129.336376] Allocating function kernel_init+0x1c/0x20 [vmalloc]
