[PATCH] x86/traps: Print unhashed pointers on stack overflow

From: Ryosuke Yasuoka
Date: Wed Dec 24 2025 - 02:08:46 EST


When a stack overflow occurs, the kernel prints hashed fault address and
the stack range using %p. The actual addresses are required for
debugging and hashed pointers provide no useful information in this
context.

Use %px to print the unhashed, raw addresses.
