Does seq_printf() has its own format string specification? Is there
any documentation explaining? I was confused by few different checks
below...

You probably meant migrate_disable()/preempt_disable(), right? But
could it still happen, at least due to NMI? E.g., perf_event BPF
program gets triggered during bpf_iter program execution? I think for
perf_event_output function, we have 3 levels, for one of each possible
"contexts"? Should we do something like that here as well?

If we allow fmt_size == 0, this will need to be changed.

So %% escaping is not supported?

why these restrictions? are they essential?

There could be space as well, as an alternative to 0.

I'm not sure I follow this check either. printf("%sbla", "whatever")
is a perfectly fine format string. Unless seq_printf has some
additional restrictions?

It feels like allowing zero shouldn't hurt too much?

Same, ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO?
