The debugobjects code have a set of 1024 statically allocated debug
objects that can be used in early boot before the slab memory allocator
is initialized. Apparently, the system may have used up all the
statically allocated objects. Try double ODEBUG_POOL_SIZE to see if it
helps.

There are also quite a number of warnings in your console log. So there
is certainly something wrong with your kernel or config options.

Cheers,
Longman
