From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: checkpatch: add ability to find bad uses of vsprintf %p<foo> extensions %pK was at least once misused at %pk in an out-of-tree module. This lead to some security concerns. Add the ability to track single and multiple line statements for misuses of %p<foo>.
