    debugobjects: Add hint for better object identification · 99777288

    In complex subsystems like mac80211 structures can contain several
    timers and work structs, so identifying a specific instance from the
    call trace and object type output of debugobjects can be hard.
    
    Allow the subsystems which support debugobjects to provide a hint
    function. This function returns a pointer to a kernel address
    (preferrably the objects callback function) which is printed along
    with the debugobjects type.
    
    Add hint methods for timer_list, work_struct and hrtimer.
