nfs: Ignore kmemleak false positive in nfs_readdir_make_qstr

Strings allocated via kmemdup() in nfs_readdir_make_qstr() are
referenced from the nfs_cache_array which is stored in a page cache
page. Kmemleak does not scan such pages and it reports several false
positives. This patch annotates the string->name pointer so that
kmemleak does not consider it a real leak.
