Re: [PATCH 5.10 147/243] NFSD: Fix TP_printk() format specifier in nfsd_clid_class

Hi!
[ Upstream commit a948b1142cae66785521a389cab2cce74069b547 ]

Since commit 9a6944fee68e ("tracing: Add a verifier to check string
pointers for trace events"), which was merged in v5.13-rc1,
TP_printk() no longer tacitly supports the "%.*s" format specifier.

These are low value tracepoints, so just remove them.
So I understand we want this for mainline, but AFAICT 5.10 does not
have 9a6944fee68e ("tracing: Add a verifier to check string pointers
for trace events") commit, so this does not fix any bug and removal of
tracepoints can be surprising.

Best regards,
								Pavel
