[PATCH] kmemleak: Add option to print warnings to dmesg

[Vincent Whitchurch <vincent.whitchurch@axis.com>]

Currently, kmemleak only prints the number of suspected leaks to dmesg
but requires the user to read a debugfs file to get the actual stack
traces of the objects' allocation points.  Add an option to print the
stack trace information (except the hex dumps) to dmesg too.  This
allows easier integration of kmemleak into automated test systems since
those kind of systems presumably already save kernel logs.
