x86/dumpstack: Fix printk_address for direct addresses
Consider a kernel crash in a module, simulated the following way: static int my_init(void) { char *map = (void *)0x5; *map = 3; return 0; } module_init(my_init); When we turn off FRAME_POINTERs, the very first instruction in that function causes a BUG. The problem is that we print IP in the BUG report using %pB (from printk_address). And %pB decrements the pointer by one to fix printing addresses of functions with tail calls. This was added in commit 71f9e598 ("x86, dumpstack: Use %pB format specifier for stack trace") to fix the call stack printouts. So instead of correct output: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000005 IP: [<ffffffffa01ac000>] my_init+0x0/0x10 [pb173] We get: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000005 IP: [<ffffffffa0152000>] 0xffffffffa0151fff To fix that, we use %pS only for stack addresses printouts (via newly added printk_stack_address) and %pB for regs->ip (via printk_address). I.e. we revert to the old behaviour for all except call stacks. And since from all those reliable is 1, we remove that parameter from printk_address.
