Subject: [PATCH v2 sl-b 4/5] rcu: Make call_rcu() print mem_dump_obj() info for double-freed callback

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...nel.org>

The debug-object double-free checks in __call_rcu() print out the
RCU callback function, which is usually sufficient to track down the
double free.  However, all uses of things like queue_rcu_work() will
have the same RCU callback function (rcu_work_rcufn() in this case),
so a diagnostic message for a double queue_rcu_work() needs more than
just the callback function.

This commit therefore calls mem_dump_obj() to dump out any additional
available information on the double-freed callback.
