kernel/lib: add additional debug capabilites for data corruption
Data corruptions in the kernel often end up in system crashes that
are easier to debug closer to the time of detection. Specifically,
if we do not panic immediately after lock or list corruptions have been
detected, the problem context is lost in the ensuing system mayhem.
Add support for allowing system crash immediately after such corruptions
are detected. The CONFIG option controls the enabling/disabling of the
feature.
