This patch series:
  - Changes all existing users of "%pCr" to print the result of
    clk_get_rate() directly, which is safe as they all do this in task
    context only,
  - Removes support for the "%pCr" printk format.
Looks good to me.

What tree will this go through? The normal printk one? Just checking
that this doesn't end up falling through the cracks because nobody
knows who would take it...
I will take it via printk.git. There already is bunch of vsprintf
changes for-4.18.
It is in printk.git, branch for-4.18-vsprintf-pcr-removal now.
Thank you.
Also I have added Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org into the commit messages.
I can confirm all stable version references ("v4.x+") match.
