Subject: More list debugging context.
Date: Wed, 1 Nov 2006 18:15:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061101231510.GA17479@redhat.com> (raw)

Print the other (hopefully) known good pointer when list_head
debugging too, which may yield additional clues.

Also fix for 80-columns to win akpm brownie points.
