Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] bpf: Mark BPF printing functions with __printf() attribute
The printing functions in BPF code are using printf() type of format,
and compiler is not happy about them as is:
kernel/bpf/helpers.c:1069:9: error: function ‘____bpf_snprintf’ might be a candidate for ‘gnu_printf’ format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]
1069 | err = bstr_printf(str, str_size, fmt, data.bin_args);
| ^~~
kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:377:9: error: function ‘____bpf_trace_printk’ might be a candidate for ‘gnu_printf’ format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]
377 | ret = bstr_printf(data.buf, MAX_BPRINTF_BUF, fmt, data.bin_args);
| ^~~
kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:433:9: error: function ‘____bpf_trace_vprintk’ might be a candidate for ‘gnu_printf’ format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]
433 | ret = bstr_printf(data.buf, MAX_BPRINTF_BUF, fmt, data.bin_args);
| ^~~
kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:475:9: error: function ‘____bpf_seq_printf’ might be a candidate for ‘gnu_printf’ format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]
475 | seq_bprintf(m, fmt, data.bin_args);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~
Fix the compilation errors by adding __printf() attribute. For that
we need to pass it down to the BPF_CALL_x() and wrap into PRINTF_BPF_CALL_*()
to make code neater.

This is combined change and I think there is no need to split it, but if required
I can do it in a four changes. Note, the culprits are older than 4 years and stable
kernels anyway don't go that deep nowadays.
