CONFIG_KMEMLEAK is a feature from the Linux kernel, so there's no way that
wpa_supplicant can't be the culprit. It must be inside linux. The API between
userland and kernel should in a way that whatever an userland application
does, there shouldn't be a memleak inside the kernel.
You should raise the issue on the linux-wireless mailing list (see
http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html).
Maybe http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/Reporting_bugs is of
relevance to you as well.
