Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] lib/vsprintf: Declare no_hash_pointers in sprintf.h

Sparse is not happy to see non-static variable without declaration:
lib/vsprintf.c:61:6: warning: symbol 'no_hash_pointers' was not declared. Should it be static?

Declare respective variable in the sprintf.h. With this, add a comment
to discourage its use if no real need.
