[GIT PULL] debugobjects updates for 2.6.30

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sat Mar 28 2009 - 18:54:59 EST


Linus,

Please pull the latest core/debugobjects git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git core/debugobjects

Main change:

deferred free of debugobjects internal reference objects to avoid
a callback into the memory allocator code in the free checks.

Thanks,

tglx

------------------>
Kyle McMartin (1):
debug_objects: add boot-parameter toggle to turn object debugging off again

Thomas Gleixner (2):
debugobjects: replace static objects when slab cache becomes available
debugobjects: delay free of internal objects
