Nathan Chancellor b0d14fc43d mm/kmemleak.c: use address-of operator on section symbols
Clang warns:

  mm/kmemleak.c:1955:28: warning: array comparison always evaluates to a constant [-Wtautological-compare]
        if (__start_ro_after_init < _sdata || __end_ro_after_init > _edata)
                                  ^
  mm/kmemleak.c:1955:60: warning: array comparison always evaluates to a constant [-Wtautological-compare]
        if (__start_ro_after_init < _sdata || __end_ro_after_init > _edata)

These are not true arrays, they are linker defined symbols, which are just
addresses.  Using the address of operator silences the warning and does
not change the resulting assembly with either clang/ld.lld or gcc/ld
(tested with diff + objdump -Dr).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
