Timur Tabi fc461a19b0 UPSTREAM: lib/vsprintf: no_hash_pointers prints all addresses as unhashed
If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then
printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for
debugging purposes.  This change applies to any function that uses
vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf().

A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled.
Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security
risk.

Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the
command-line option is set.
