Subject: [PATCH 1/6] serial: sh-sci: Reveal ptrval in dev_dbg

Starting with v4.15-rc2 commit ad67b74d2469d9 ("printk: hash addresses
printed with %p"), enabling debug prints in sh-sci.c would generate
output like below confusing the users who try to sneak into the
internals of the driver:

sh-sci e6e88000.serial: sci_request_dma: TX: got channel (____ptrval____)
sh-sci e6e88000.serial: sci_request_dma: mapped 4096@(____ptrval____) to 0x00000006798bf000
sh-sci e6e88000.serial: sci_request_dma: RX: got channel (____ptrval____)
sh-sci e6e88000.serial: sci_dma_tx_work_fn: (____ptrval____): 0...2, cookie 2

There are two possible fixes for that:
 - get rid of '%p' prints if they don't reveal any useful information
 - s/%p/%px/, since it is unlikely we have any concerns leaking the
   pointer values when running a debug/non-production kernel

Go second route to preserve original debug output and minimize the diff.

Fixes: ad67b74d2469d9 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p")
