[PATCH] tracing: use %ps format string to print symbols

[Arnd Bergmann]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

clang started warning about excessive stack usage in
hist_trigger_print_key()

kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:4723:13: error: stack frame size (1336) exceeds limit (1024) in function 'hist_trigger_print_key' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]

The problem is that there are two 512-byte arrays on the stack if
hist_trigger_stacktrace_print() gets inlined. I don't think this has
changed in the past five years, but something probably changed the
inlining decisions made by the compiler, so the problem is now made
more obvious.

Rather than printing the symbol names into separate buffers, it
seems we can simply use the special %ps format string modifier
to print the pointers symbolically and get rid of both buffers.

Fixes: 69a0200c2e25 ("tracing: Add hist trigger support for stacktraces as keys")

I'm not sure if the %ps format string actually works as intended
with the explicit length modifier, it would be good if someone
could try this out before applying. Would it be ok to remove the
length modifier otherwise?
