Perform reboot stresss test on a kernel build with lockdebug flag enabled.
Bad unlock balanace detected would happened sometimes. Below is the
problematic scenario. If params.mmio_debug value was changed at step #4.
And it would trigger this issue. Modify code flow that decide to
enable/disable mmio debug before unclaimed_reg_debug() can avoid
this symptom.

    1. GEN6_READ_HEADER is called with params.mmio_debug = 0
    2. unclaimed_reg_debug(before = true) is called
    3. unclaimed_reg_debug return without taking a lock
       because params.mmio_debug == 0
    4. other thread modifies params.mmio_debug to 1
    5. GEN6_READ_FOOTER is called with params.mmio_debug != 0
    6. unclaimed_reg_debug tries to assert non-taken lock (first WARN)
    7. unclaimed_reg_debug tries to release non-taken lock (second WARN)
