Subject: [PATCH 1/1] module: initialize module dynamic debug later

We should initialize the module dynamic debug datastructures
only after determining that the module is not loaded yet. This
fixes a bug that introduced in 2.6.35-rc2, where when a trying
to load a module twice, we also load it's dynamic printing data
twice which causes all sorts of nasty issues. Also handle
the dynamic debug cleanup later on failure.

Hi Yehuda,

Thanks for tracking this down. One minor comment:

This implies we don't need the #ifdef here:

So I removed it. It'd be nice to have a similar wrapper in the header
for ddebug_add_module so we can avoid the #ifdef there too, but that's
a separate patch.

Applied!
Rusty.
