[PATCH 0/3][RESEND] add support for never printing hashed addresses

[Timur Tabi]

[accidentally sent from the wrong email address, so resending]

[The list of email addresses on CC: is getting quite lengthy,
so I hope I've included everyone.]

Although hashing addresses printed via printk does make the
kernel more secure, it interferes with debugging, especially
with some functions like print_hex_dump() which always uses
hashed addresses.

To avoid having to choose between %p and %px, it's easier to
add a kernel command line that treats all %p as %px.  This
encourages developers to use %p more without making debugging
more difficult.

Patches #1 and #2 upgrade the kselftest framework so that
it can report on tests that were skipped outright.  This
is needed for the test_printf module which will now skip
%p hashing tests if hashing is disabled.

Patch #2 upgrades the printf library to check the command
line.  It also updates test_printf().
