Linus,
Please pull the latest core-debugobjects-for-linus git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core-debugobjects-for-linus
(This actually caught a few real bugs, so it is worth doing.)
Thanks,
Ingo
------------------>
Christine Chan (2):
debugobjects: Extend to assert that an object is initialized
timer: Use debugobjects to catch deletion of uninitialized timers
Stephen Boyd (2):
debugobjects: Be smarter about static objects
timer: Setup uninitialized timer with a stub callback
