Suren Baghdasaryan cb7d761bf5 Docs/mm/allocation-profiling: describe sysctrl limitations in debug mode
When CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y, /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling is
read-only to avoid debug warnings in a scenario when an allocation is
made while profiling is disabled (allocation does not get an allocation
tag), then profiling gets enabled and allocation gets freed (warning due
to the allocation missing allocation tag).
