The format specifier "%p" can leak kernel addresses.
Use "%pK" instead.
Still? Isn't the value randomized these days?
%p give an hashed value, with %pK you can use a sysctl to get the real

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
