mm/memblock.c: skip kmemleak for kasan_init()
Kmemleak does not play well with KASAN (tested on both HPE Apollo 70 and
Huawei TaiShan 2280 aarch64 servers).

After calling start_kernel()->setup_arch()->kasan_init(), kmemleak early
log buffer went from something like 280 to 260000 which caused kmemleak
disabled and crash dump memory reservation failed.  The multitude of
kmemleak_alloc() calls is from nested loops while KASAN is setting up full
memory mappings, so let early kmemleak allocations skip those
memblock_alloc_internal() calls came from kasan_init() given that those
early KASAN memory mappings should not reference to other memory.  Hence,
no kmemleak false positives.
