This patch tries to make printk more readable and reliable.
I like the idea.
Introduce "<almost NULL>" for string arguments with addresses below 0x400.
I would like the message to be more informative. Include the address somehow..
"<near-NULL %03x>" or so?
(No, I don't want to make printf() recurse, but you get my idea. :)
The idea is to catch garbage strings from stray pointers and print "<GARBAGE>" instead.
Again request more informative text. For example I think "<non-ASCII characters>" would be much nicer.
