I have pushed the changes into printk.git,
branch for-4.20-vsprintf-hash-fixes.

Note that I have split it into two separate commits. The first one
adds the const modifier. The second commit does a pure move of
the code without any "hidden" changes. I forgot to ask for this
when reviewing v1.

You might see the result at
