Subject: [PATCH 2/2] [RFC] x86: Make page fault oopses similar

Introduce printk_address to X86_32 in a simplified form for
now.  Reformat X86_64 printk_address to avoid two declarations.

Change the printk formats on X86_32 and 64 to be similar.

Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison <harvey.harrison@...il.com>

Ingo, this changes oops printing format, consider this just to
get the discussion started on how people would like this to
look.
