The patch titled
Subject: vsprintf: add support for printing symbolic error codes
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
printf-add-support-for-printing-symbolic-error-codes.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

Subject: vsprintf: add support for printing symbolic error codes
It has been suggested several times to extend vsnprintf() to be able to
convert the numeric value of ENOSPC to print "ENOSPC". This is yet
another attempt. Rather than adding another %p extension, simply teach
plain %p to convert ERR_PTRs. While the primary use case is
if (IS_ERR(foo)) {
pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %p
", foo);
return PTR_ERR(foo);
}
It is also more helpful to get a symbolic error code (or, worst case, a
decimal number) in case an ERR_PTR is accidentally passed to some
%p<something>, rather than the (efault) that check_pointer() would result
in.
With my embedded hat on, I've made it possible to remove this.
I've tested that the #ifdeffery in errcode.c is sufficient to make this
compile on arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86 - I'm sure the 0day bot
will tell me which ones I've missed.
The symbols to include have been found by massaging the output of
find arch include -iname 'errno*.h' | xargs grep -E 'define\s*E'
In the cases where some common aliasing exists (e.g. EAGAIN=EWOULDBLOCK
on all platforms, EDEADLOCK=EDEADLK on most), I've moved the more popular
one (in terms of 'git grep -w Efoo | wc) to the bottom so that one takes
precedence.
