Subject: printk format "%4.4s"

Hi, all

I have a question about printk format.

Can printk format use "%4.4s"?
This format is used following source.

#############
drivers/acpi/tables/tbinstal.c
                ACPI_ERROR((AE_INFO,
                            "Table has invalid signature [%4.4s], must be SSDT, PSDT or OEMx",
                            table_desc->pointer->signature));

##############
At least, my dmesg is buggy output like that..

##############
$ dmesg
