[PATCH v3] lib/test_printf.c: accept "ptrval" as valid result for plain 'p' tests
From: Thierry Escande
Date: Wed Jun 13 2018 - 13:18:59 EST
If the test_printf module is loaded before the crng is initialized, the
plain 'p' tests will fail because the printed address will not be hashed
and the buffer will contain "(____ptrval____)" or "(ptrval)" instead
(64-bit vs 32-bit).
Since we cannot wait for the crng to be initialized for an undefined
time, both plain 'p' tests now accept the strings "(____ptrval____)" or
"(ptrval)" as a valid result and print a warning message.

Changes in v3:
- Use "(____ptrval____)" for 64-bit
- Update commit message headline
Changes in v2:
- Remove wait_for_random_bytes() usage
- Remove Acked-by from Tobin as the proposed solution is not the same
anymore.
