Kmemleak is falsely reporting a leak of the slab allocation in
sctp_stream_init_ext():

But it's freed later. Kmemleak misses the allocation because its
pointer is stored in the generic radix tree sctp_stream::out, and the
generic radix tree uses raw pages which aren't tracked by kmemleak.
Fix this by adding the kmemleak hooks to the generic radix tree code.

README
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.
