dma-debug: avoid spinlock recursion when disabling dma-debug
commit 3017cd63f26fc655d56875aaf497153ba60e9edf upstream. With netconsole (at least) the pr_err("... disablingn") call can recurse back into the dma-debug code, where it'll try to grab free_entries_lock again. Avoid the problem by doing the printk after dropping the lock.
