Right; and I see Mel already has a fix for that.

However I really, _really_ hate that dependency. We really should not
get memory allocations under rq->lock.

We seem to avoid this for the existing hrtimer usage, because of
hrtimer_init() doing: debug_init() -> debug_hrtimer_init() ->
debug_object_init().

But that isn't done for the (PSI) schedule_delayed_work() thing for some
raisin; even though: group_init() does INIT_DELAYED_WORK() ->
__INIT_DELAYED_WORK() -> __init_timer() -> init_timer_key() ->
debug_init() -> debug_timer_init() -> debug_object_init().

But _somehow_ that isn't doing it.

Now debug_object_activate() has this case:

	if (descr->is_static_object && descr->is_static_object(addr)) {
		debug_object_init()

which does an debug_object_init() for static allocations, which brings
us to:

  static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct psi_group_cpu, system_group_pcpu);
  static struct psi_group psi_system = {

But that _should_ get initialized by psi_init(), which is called from
sched_init() which _should_ be waaay before do_basic_setup().

Something goes wobbly.. but I'm not seeing it.
