From 3e8ebb5c433f016dff5824587436642d87fc2e6c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle McMartin Date: Sun, 1 Mar 2009 20:41:41 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] debug_objects: add boot-parameter toggle to turn object debugging off again While trying to debug why my Atom netbook is falling over booting rawhide debug-enabled kernels, I stumbled across the fact that we've been enabling object debugging by default. However, once you default it to on, you've got no way to turn it back off again at runtime. Add a boolean toggle to turn it off. I would just make it an int module_param, however people may already expect the boolean enable behaviour, so just add an analogue for disabling.
