Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Make debugobjects fixup functions return bool type

From: "Du, Changbin" <changbin.du@...el.com>

Hello,
I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem.
But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved.
This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of
int. Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the
'real' type.

The MAINTAINERS file doesn't include lib/debugobjects.c, so I can 
only send to Andrew Morton (akpm@...ux-foundation.org) as a last
resort. :)

I will probaly have 2 other patches which send later.

Du, Changbin (7):
  debugobjects: make fixup functions return bool instead of int
  debugobjects: correct the usage of fixup call results
  workqueue: update debugobjects fixup callbacks return type
  timer: update debugobjects fixup callbacks return type
  rcu: update debugobjects fixup callbacks return type
  percpu_counter: update debugobjects fixup callbacks return type
  Documentation: update debugobjects doc
