Hi there,
A warning is triggered in lib/vsprintf.c due to an unsupported '%' in a format string. This issue occurs in the function format_decode at line 2659 of kernel version 6.12.0-rc3-gb22db8b8befe. A proof-of-concept is available, and I have manually reproduced this bug.
Report:
```
Please remove unsupported % in format string
