There's no silly game here. %pe would either print a string or a value.A hashed value, that is, never the raw value.
There is value in printing the raw value. As discussed, it can simplify the code. The worry about exposing a ptr value is IMO overstated. It's trivial to inspect the uses and _all_ %p<FOO> uses need inspection and validation at acceptance anyway. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
