mm: kmemleak_alloc_percpu() should follow the gfp from per_alloc() 

Beginning at commit d52d3997f8 ("ipv6: Create percpu rt6_info"), the
following INFO splat is logged:

  ===============================
  [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
  4.1.0-rc7-next-20150612 #1 Not tainted
  -------------------------------
  kernel/sched/core.c:7318 Illegal context switch in RCU-bh read-side critical section!
  other info that might help us debug this:
  rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
   3 locks held by systemd/1:
   #0:  (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff815f0c8f>] rtnetlink_rcv+0x1f/0x40

   #2:  (addrconf_hash_lock){+...+.}, at: [<ffffffff816a3604>] ipv6_add_addr+0x184/0x540
  stack backtrace:

Additional backtrace lines are truncated.  In addition, the above splat
is followed by several "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid
context at mm/slub.c:1268" outputs.  As suggested by Martin KaFai Lau,
these are the clue to the fix.  Routine kmemleak_alloc_percpu() always
uses GFP_KERNEL for its allocations, whereas it should follow the gfp
from its callers.
