Before crng is ready, output of "%p" composes of "(ptrval)" and
left padding spaces for alignment as no random address can be
generated. This seems a little strange when default string width
is larger than strlen("(ptrval)").
For example, when irq domain names are built with "%p", the nodes
under /sys/kernel/debug/irq/domains like this on AArch64 system,
[root@y irq]# ls domains/
default irqchip@ (ptrval)-2
irqchip@ (ptrval)-4 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC1 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC3
irqchip@ (ptrval) irqchip@ (ptrval)-3
\_SB_.TCS0.QIC0 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC2
The name "irqchip@ (ptrval)-2" is not so readable in console
output.
This patch replaces space with readable "=" when output needs padding.
Following is the output after applying the patch,
[root@y domains]# ls
default irqchip@(====ptrval====)-2
irqchip@(====ptrval====)-4 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC1 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC3
irqchip@(====ptrval====) irqchip@(====ptrval====)-3 \_SB_.TCS0.QIC0
\_SB_.TCS0.QIC2
There is same problem in some subsystem's dmesg output. Moreover,
someone may call "%p" in a similar case. In addition, the timing of
crng initialization done may vary on different system. So, the change
is made in vsprintf.c.

I'm sorry, but that's way too convoluted.

I was thinking of just doing something like
- return string(buf, end, "(ptrval)", spec);
+ return string(buf, end, sizeof(void *) == 8 ?
"(====ptrval====)" : "(ptrval)", spec);

Thanks a lot! It's more straightforward considering 32/64-bit system.
Thanks.
