Hi Kent,

I've asked after this before[1], but there continues to be a lot of
bcachefs development going on that is only visible when it appears in
-next or during the merge window. I cannot find the above commit on
any mailing list on lore.kernel.org[2]. The rules for -next are clear:
patches _must_ appear on a list _somewhere_ before they land in -next
(much less Linus's tree). The point is to get additional reviews, and
to serve as a focal point for any discussions that pop up over a given
change. Please adjust the bcachefs development workflow to address this.

Anyway, in reference to the above commit, please scrub bcachefs of its
%px format string uses. Neither it nor %p should be used[3][4] in new
code. (Which is, again, something checkpatch.pl will warn about.)

Thanks!

-Kees
