If data is packed, data structures can store it outside of usual
boundaries. For example a 4-byte int can be stored on a unaligned
boundary in a case like this:
struct s {
char f1;
int f2;
} __attribute((packed));
...the int is stored at an offset of one byte. Some platforms have
problems dereferencing data that is not aligned with its size, and
code exists to handle most cases of this for BTF typed data display.
However pointer display was missed, and a simple function to test if
"ptr_is_aligned(data, data_sz)" would help clarify this code.

long can be 32-bit on 4-byte architectures, plus %llx implies long

By using the stack for this small structure, we avoid the need
for freeing memory in error paths.

Thank you for the quick follow up. But see all the comments I left and
the fix ups I had to do. Just because the changes are small doesn't
mean you should get sloppy about making them. Please be a bit more
thorough in future patches.
Applied to bpf-next.

One more thing. Please do reply to the rest of my questions and
concerns on the original patch set. You tend to just address most of
the feedback in the next revision, but I'd appreciate it if you could
reply at least with a simple "ok" or more elaborate answer where
warranted. It makes the code reviewing process a bit easier.
There are still big-endian concerns and an error propagation question
at least that you haven't addressed neither in the follow up patches
nor in an email reply. Please do so, preferably both.
