    rcu: Dump memory object info if callback function is invalid

    When a structure containing an RCU callback rhp is (incorrectly) freed
    and reallocated after rhp is passed to call_rcu(), it is not unusual for
    rhp->func to be set to NULL. This defeats the debugging prints used by
    __call_rcu_common() in kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y,
    which expect to identify the offending code using the identity of this
    function.

    And in kernels build without CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y, things
    are even worse, as can be seen from this splat:

    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0
    ... ...
    PC is at 0x0
    LR is at rcu_do_batch+0x1c0/0x3b8
    ... ...
     (rcu_do_batch) from (rcu_core+0x1d4/0x284)
     (rcu_core) from (__do_softirq+0x24c/0x344)
     (__do_softirq) from (__irq_exit_rcu+0x64/0x108)
     (__irq_exit_rcu) from (irq_exit+0x8/0x10)
     (irq_exit) from (__handle_domain_irq+0x74/0x9c)
     (__handle_domain_irq) from (gic_handle_irq+0x8c/0x98)
     (gic_handle_irq) from (__irq_svc+0x5c/0x94)
     (__irq_svc) from (arch_cpu_idle+0x20/0x3c)
     (arch_cpu_idle) from (default_idle_call+0x4c/0x78)
     (default_idle_call) from (do_idle+0xf8/0x150)
     (do_idle) from (cpu_startup_entry+0x18/0x20)
     (cpu_startup_entry) from (0xc01530)

    This commit therefore adds calls to mem_dump_obj(rhp) to output some
    information, for example:

      slab kmalloc-256 start ffff410c45019900 pointer offset 0 size 256

    This provides the rough size of the memory block and the offset of the
    rcu_head structure, which as least provides at least a few clues to help
    locate the problem. If the problem is reproducible, additional slab
    debugging can be enabled, for example, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y, which can
    provide significantly more information.
