[PATCH v1 1/1] vsprintf: Fix potential unaligned access
From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Mon Jan 10 2022 - 15:50:48 EST
The %p4cc specifier in some cases might get an unaligned pointer.
Due to this we need to make copy to local variable once to avoid
potential crashes on some architectures due to improper access.
Fixes: af612e43de6d ("lib/vsprintf: Add support for printing V4L2 and DRM fourccs")
