[RFC][PATCH 2/3] vsprintf: Add support for %pf and %pF to vbin_printf()

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Some architectures require a dereference of function pointers (See powerpc).
The dereferenced poiner must be saved into the buffer in vbin_printf() to be
safe to access it later.
