kmemleak_initialized is set in kmemleak_late_init(), which
also means that there is no call trace which object's memory
leak is before kmemleak_late_init(), so use object_cache instead
of kmemleak_initialized to check in set_track_prepare() to avoid
no call trace records when there is a memory leak in the code
between kmemleak_init() and kmemleak_late_init().

Nitpick: please add spaces after/before the comment delimiters. I'd also
make it clearer that it's not about kmemleak being initialised but
rather the stack depot. E.g.:

	/*
	 * Use object_cache to determine whether kmemleak_init() has
	 * been invoked. stack_depot_early_init() is called before
	 * kmemleak_init() in mm_core_init().
	 */

>  	nr_entries = stack_trace_save(entries, ARRAY_SIZE(entries), 3);
>  	trace_handle = stack_depot_save(entries, nr_entries, GFP_NOWAIT);
