The patch below is against Peter's refcount series. Note that this patch depends
on this patch in Peter's series:
kref: Implement using refcount_t

Subject: printk, locking/atomics, kref: Introduce new %pAr and %pAk format string options for atomic_t and 'struct kref'
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

A decade of kref internals exposed to driver writers has proven that
exposing internals to them is a bad idea.
Make the bad patterns a bit easier to detect and allow cleaner
printouts by offering two new printk format string extensions:
%pAr - print the atomic_t count in decimal
%pAk - print the struct kref count in decimal
Also add printf testcases:
[ 0.328495] test_printf: all 268 tests passed
