lib/list_debug.c: print more list debugging context in __list_del_entry_valid()
Currently, the entry->prev and entry->next are considered to be valid as
long as they are not LIST_POISON{1|2}. However, the memory may be
corrupted. The prev->next is invalid probably because 'prev' is
invalid, not because prev->next's content is illegal.
Unfortunately, the printk and its subfunctions will modify the registers
that hold the 'prev' and 'next', and we don't see this valuable
information in the BUG context.
So print the contents of 'entry->prev' and 'entry->next'.
Here's an example:
list_del corruption. prev->next should be c0ecbf74, but was c08410dc
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:53!

(__list_del_entry_valid) from (__list_del_entry+0xc/0x20)
(__list_del_entry) from (finish_swait+0x60/0x7c)
(finish_swait) from (rcu_gp_kthread+0x560/0xa20)
(rcu_gp_kthread) from (kthread+0x14c/0x15c)
(kthread) from (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x24)
At first, I thought prev->next was overwritten. Later, I carefully
analyzed the RCU code and the disassembly code. The error occurred when
deleting a node from the list rcu_state.gp_wq. The System.map shows
that the address of rcu_state is c0840c00. Then I use gdb to obtain the
offset of rcu_state.gp_wq.task_list.
(gdb) p &((struct rcu_state *)0)->gp_wq.task_list
$1 = (struct list_head *) 0x4dc
Again:
list_del corruption. prev->next should be c0ecbf74, but was c08410dc
c08410dc = c0840c00 + 0x4dc = &rcu_state.gp_wq.task_list
Because rcu_state.gp_wq has at most one node, so I can guess that "prev
= &rcu_state.gp_wq.task_list". But for other scenes, maybe I wasn't so
lucky, I cannot figure out the value of 'prev'.
