Hi,

Not using format specifiers sounds pretty nice. Are there any other
advantages over markers? What about self-modifying code, does it employ
this technique to eliminate conditional branching (markers did this on
some arches, IIRC)?

I'm considering using this for kmemtrace, so please keep me Cc-ed if
possible.
