Yang Shi bd9dcd0465 debugobjects: Export max loops counter
__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 ]

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
