Subject: RE: [PATCH v10 tip 5/9] tracing: allow BPF programs to call
 bpf_trace_printk()

From: Alexei Starovoitov

Should anyone be allowed to use BPF programs to determine the kernel
addresses of any items?
Looks as though it is leaking kernel addresses to userspace.
Note that the problem is with the arguments, not the format string.
