      We fix it by moving the actual freeing to outside the lock (the lock
      now only protects the list).
      
      The pool lock is also promoted to irq-safe (suggested by Dan). It's
      necessary because free_pool is now called outside the irq disabled
      region. So we need to protect against an interrupt handler which calls
      debug_object_init().
      
      [tglx@linutronix.de: added hlist_move_list helper to avoid looping
      		     through the list twice]
