mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.12-rc1 commit 5ead723a20e0447bc7db33dc3070b420e5f80aa6 category: feature bugzilla: 181005 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4EUY7
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...
-----------------------------------------------
If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for debugging purposes. This change applies to any function that uses vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf().
A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled. Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security risk.
Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the command-line option is set.
