Sending patch v2 in a few minutes.

Er... it... doesn't.

There was "#if defined CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC && defined CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT"
but then I split it into two #ifs to have a nice explanatory empty
#else clause. And I did not test it after that edit
("what could possibly go wrong?"). Sorry.

Patch v2 I'm sending _is_ tested.
