[PATCH 2/2] debugobjects: Print warnings outside bucket lock

From: Dmitry Safonov
Date: Wed Dec 12 2018 - 23:35:00 EST


Whenever debugobjects finds invalid pattern during life time of a kernel
object such as:
- Activation of uninitialized objects
- Initialization of active objects
- Usage of freed/destroyed objects
it prints a warning and tries to make fixup over an object.

Unfortunately, it becomes error-prone to use WARN() or printing under
debugobjects bucket lock: printk() may defer work to workqueue, and
realization of workqueues uses debugobjects. Further, console drivers
use page allocator, potentially vmalloc() or slub/slab. Which reasonably
makes lockdep to go nuts as there are debug_check_no_obj_freed() checks
in allocators.

Move printings out of debugobjets bucket lock to address the potential
lockups.
