[PATCH v2] mm/slab: Do not hash pointers when debugging slab

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Wed Dec 13 2017 - 10:34:45 EST


If CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB/CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB_LEAK are enabled, the slab code
prints extra debug information when e.g. corruption is detected.
This includes pointers, which are not very useful when hashed.

Fix this by using %px to print unhashed pointers instead where it makes
sense, and by removing the printing of a last user pointer referring to
code.

Fixes: ad67b74d2469d9b8 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p")

v2:
- Add Acked-by,
- Remove printing of pointer to last user, which refers to code.
