    vsprintf: use new vsprintf symbolic function pointer format · c80cfb04
    Bjorn Helgaas authored
    Use the '%pF' format to get rid of an "#ifdef DEBUG" and make some printks
    atomic.
    
    This removes the last in-tree uses of print_fn_descriptor_symbol().  I
    marked print_fn_descriptor_symbol() deprecated and scheduled it for
    removal next year to give time for out-of-tree modules to be updated.
    
    parisc's print_fn_descriptor_symbol() is currently broken there (it needs
    to dereference the function pointer similar to ia64 and power).  This
    patch shouldn't make anything worse, but it means we need to fix
    dereference_function_descriptor() instead of print_fn_descriptor_symbol()
    to get meaningful initcall_debug output.
