Don't use a standalone gcc compiled program to

The kernel output is;
        printk("0x%lx\n", 0x100ul)            0x100
        printk("%p\n", (void *)0x100ul)               00000100
        printk("%#p\n", (void *)0x100ul)      0x00000100
The last one isn't used at all in kernel source. (gcc complains)
It's always "0x%p"
      I was talking about using "%#lx", not "%#p". I don't see it in your
example.
"0x%lx" and "%#lx" produce the same output in the kernel.

The latter isn't used very often though.

It's already used in the same format string in this case. That's why I suggested
not to deviate from the existing code.

WBR, Sergei
