There are nested loops on debug objects free path, sometimes it may take over hundred thousands of loops, then cause soft lockup with !CONFIG_PREEMPT occasionally, like below:

The code path might be called in either atomic or non-atomic context, and in_atomic() can't tell if current context is atomic or not on !PREEMPT kernel, so cond_resched() can't be used to prevent from the softlockup.
Defer objects free outside of the loop in a batch to save some cycles in the loop. The objects will be added to a global free list, then put them back to pool list in a work. When allocating objects, check if there are any objects available on the global free list and just reuse the objects if the global free list is not empty. Reuse pool lock to protect the free list. Using a new lock sounds overkilling.
Export the number of objects on the global freelist to sysfs, which looks like:
max_chain :79 max_loops :8147 warnings :0 fixups :0 pool_free :1697 pool_min_free :346 pool_used :15356 pool_max_used :23933 on_free_list :39 objs_allocated:32617 objs_freed :16588
