Obscuring the pointers that slub shows when debugging makes for some confusing slub debug messages: Padding overwritten. 0x0000000079f0674a-0x000000000d4dce17 Those addresses are hashed for kernel security reasons. If we're trying to be secure with slub_debug on the commandline we have some big problems given that we dump whole chunks of kernel memory to the kernel logs. Let's use %px here and dump buffers with the actual address for the buffer instead of the hashed version so that the logs are meaningful. This also helps if a kernel address is in some slub debug report so we can figure out that the object is referencing itself.
