Okay, revised as my regexp was too lazy

$ git grep -lw s[^[:space:]_]*printf -- include/linux/
include/linux/btf.h
include/linux/device-mapper.h
include/linux/efi.h
include/linux/fortify-string.h
include/linux/kdev_t.h
include/linux/kernel.h
include/linux/netlink.h
include/linux/pci-p2pdma.h
include/linux/perf_event.h
include/linux/sunrpc/svc_xprt.h
include/linux/tnum.h
include/linux/usb.h
include/linux/usb/gadget_configfs.h
