What i'd like to see though are clear explanations about why an
allocation is not considered a leak, in terms of comments added to the
code. That will also help us reduce the number of annotations later on.

I'll document them in both Documentation/kmemleak.txt and inside the
code. If I implement the "any pointer inside the block" method, all
the memleak_padding() false positives will disappear.
