Remove unnecessary work pending test before calling schedule_work().  It
has been tested in queue_work_on() already.  No functional changed.

<title>debugobjects: Make debug_object_activate() return status</title>

<content type='text'>
In order to better respond to things like duplicate invocations
of call_rcu(), RCU needs to see the status of a call to
debug_object_activate().  This would allow RCU to leak the callback in
order to avoid adding freelist-reuse mischief to the duplicate invoations.
This commit therefore makes debug_object_activate() return status,
zero for success and -EINVAL for failure.

<title>hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators</title>

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj-&gt;member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

<title>debugobjects: Fix selftest for static warnings</title>

<content type='text'>
debugobjects is now printing a warning when a fixup for a NOTAVAILABLE
object is run.  This causes the selftest to fail like:

	ODEBUG: selftest warnings failed 4 != 5

We could just increase the number of warnings that the selftest is
expecting to see because that is actually what has changed.  But, it turns
out that fixup_activate() was written with inverted logic and thus a fixup
for a static object returned 1 indicating the object had been fixed, and 0
otherwise.  Fix the logic to be correct and update the counts to reflect
that nothing needed fixing for a static object.

Calling del_timer_sync() on an uninitialized timer leads to a
never ending loop in lock_timer_base() that spins checking for a
non-NULL timer base. Add an assertion to debugobjects to catch
usage of uninitialized objects so that we can initialize timers
in the del_timer_sync() path before it calls lock_timer_base().

usage of uninitialized objects so that we can initialize timers
in the del_timer_sync() path before it calls lock_timer_base().

Make debugobjects use the return code from the fixup function. That
allows us better diagnostics in the activate check than relying on a
WARN_ON() in the object specific code.

Order of initialization look like this:
...
debugobjects
kmemleak
...(lots of other subsystems)...
workqueues (through early initcall)
...

debugobjects use schedule_work for batch freeing of its data and kmemleak
heavily use debugobjects, so when it comes to freeing and workqueues were
not initialized yet, kernel crashes:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)

 [&lt;ffffffff810b58bc&gt;] __rcu_process_callbacks+0x1b6/0x2d9
...

because system_wq is NULL.

Fix it by checking if workqueues susbystem was initialized before using.
