<content type='text'>
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.

<title>lib: Fix fall-through warnings for Clang</title>

<content type='text'>
In preparation to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, fix multiple
warnings by explicitly adding multiple break statements instead of
letting the code fall through to the next case, and by replacing a
number of /* fall through */ comments with the new pseudo-keyword
macro fallthrough.

Notice that Clang doesn't recognize /* Fall through */ comments as
implicit fall-through markings.

This reverts commit 6a9dc5fd6170 ("lib: Revert use of fallthrough
pseudo-keyword in lib/")

Now that we can build arch/powerpc/boot/ free of -Wimplicit-fallthrough,
re-enable these fixes for lib/.

The following build error for powerpc64 was reported by Nathan Chancellor:

  "$ scripts/config --file arch/powerpc/configs/powernv_defconfig -e KERNEL_XZ

   $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux- distclean powernv_defconfig zImage

     586 |    fallthrough;
         |    ^~~~~~~~~~~

   This will end up affecting distribution configurations such as Debian
   and OpenSUSE according to my testing. I am not sure what the solution
   is, the PowerPC wrapper does not set -D__KERNEL__ so I am not sure
   that compiler_attributes.h can be safely included."

In order to avoid these sort of problems, it seems that the best
solution is to use /* fall through */ comments instead of the
fallthrough pseudo-keyword macro in lib/, for now.

When printing phandle via %pOFp the custom spec is used. First of all,
it has a SMALL flag which makes no sense for decimal numbers. Second,
we have already default spec for decimal numbers. Use the latter in

<title>Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: vsprintf</title>

Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:

        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
