Subject: debugobjects: Add hint for better object identification
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=997772884036e6e121de39322179989154437d9f;p=linux-beck.git

debugobjects: Add hint for better object identification

In complex subsystems like mac80211 structures can contain several
timers and work structs, so identifying a specific instance from the
call trace and object type output of debugobjects can be hard.

Allow the subsystems which support debugobjects to provide a hint
function. This function returns a pointer to a kernel address
(preferrably the objects callback function) which is printed along
with the debugobjects type.

Add hint methods for timer_list, work_struct and hrtimer.

[ tglx: Massaged changelog, made it compile ]
