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.

If we agreed to move sprintf() declarations into printk.h
then this might go to printk.h as well.

Sure, but I disagree with printk.h approach (as I explained why in the reply
to the suggestion).
