lib/vsprintf: no_hash_pointers prints all addresses as unhashed
If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for debugging purposes. This change applies to any function that uses vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf(). A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled. Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security risk. Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the command-line option is set.
