debugobjects: Export max loops counter

Browse source

__debug_check_no_obj_freed() can be an expensive operation depending on the
size of memory freed. It already exports the maximum chain walk length via
debugfs, but this only records the maximum of a single memory chunk.

Though there is no information about the total number of objects inspected
for a __debug_check_no_obj_freed() operation, which might be significantly
larger when a huge memory region is freed.

Aggregate the number of objects inspected for a single invocation of
__debug_check_no_obj_freed() and export it via sysfs.

The resulting output of /sys/kernel/debug/debug_objects/stats looks like:

max_chain     :121
max_checked   :543267
warnings      :0
fixups        :0
pool_free     :1764
pool_min_free :341
pool_used     :86438
pool_max_used :268887
objs_allocated:6068254
objs_freed    :5981076

[ tglx: Renamed the variable to max_checked and adjusted changelog ]
