Subject: [PATCH 4/4] lib/vsprintf: Remove atomic-unsafe support for %pCr

"%pCr" formats the current rate of a clock, and calls clk_get_rate().
The latter obtains a mutex, hence it must not be called from atomic
context.

Remove support for this rarely-used format, as vsprintf() (and e.g.
printk()) must be callable from any context.

Any remaining out-of-tree users will start seeing the clock's name
printed instead of its rate.

Fixes: 900cca2944254edd ("lib/vsprintf: add %pC{,n,r} format specifiers for clocks")
