Would it be reasonable to make this non-static? Or somehow make it possible to get this flag from other subsystems? There are other places in the kernel that dump sensitive data such as registers. We'd like to be able to use 'debug_never_hash_pointers' to decide if our debugging tools can dump registers etc. What we really need is info if the kernel is in debug mode and we can dump all kinds of sensitive info; debug_never_hash_pointers is would be a good enough proxy for that.
The next version of my patch (coming soon) will export the symbol. It's intended for test_printf, but if you think it can be used by others, so much the better.
