That gives one method, right?  The rpc stuff is freed at the bottom of a
complicated callback chain, and the interesting stuff is what caused the memory
to be freed, not the actually free method.

In previous network (ath9k) hacking I had the same trouble..I think for most
cases you need a full or mostly full stack to make use of the slub
debug logic.

Thanks,
