debug: add notifier chain debugging
during some development we suspected a case where we left something
in a notifier chain that was from a module that was unloaded already...
and that sort of thing is rather hard to track down.
This patch adds a very simple sanity check (which isn't all that
expensive) to make sure the notifier we're about to call is
actually from either the kernel itself of from a still-loaded
module, avoiding a hard-to-chase-down crash.
