When booting with debug_pagealloc=on while having:
CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_ENABLE_DEFAULT=y  
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_DEFAULT_OFF=n  
the system fails to boot due to page faults during kmemleak scanning.

Crash logs:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff8880cd400000

This occurs because:
With debug_pagealloc enabled, __free_pages() invokes
debug_pagealloc_unmap_pages(), clearing the _PAGE_PRESENT bit for
freed pages in the direct mapping.
Commit 3dc92c311498 ("kexec: add Kexec HandOver (KHO) generation helpers")
releases the KHO scratch region via init_cma_reserved_pageblock(),
unmapping its physical pages. Subsequent kmemleak scanning accesses
these unmapped pages, triggering fatal page faults.

This patch introduces kmemleak_no_scan_phys(phys_addr_t),
a physical-address variant of kmemleak_no_scan(), which marks
memblock regions as OBJECT_NO_SCAN.

We invoke this from kho_reserve_scratch() to exclude the reserved
region from scanning before it is released to the buddy allocator.

This is based linux next-20251119.
