Thomas Gleixner 55fb412ef7 debugobjects: Dont destroy kmem cache in init()
debug_objects_mem_init() is invoked from mm_core_init() before work queues
are available. If debug_objects_mem_init() destroys the kmem cache in the
error path it causes an Oops in __queue_work():

 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
 RIP: 0010:__queue_work+0x35/0x6a0
  queue_work_on+0x66/0x70
  flush_all_cpus_locked+0xdf/0x1a0

  common_startup_64+0x12c/0x138

Further the object cache pointer is used in various places to check for
early boot operation. It is exposed before the replacments for the static
boot time objects are allocated and the self test operates on it.

This can be avoided by:

     1) Running the self test with the static boot objects

     2) Exposing it only after the replacement objects have been added to
     	the pool.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
