[4/4] lib/vsprintf: Remove atomic-unsafe support for %pCr

Commit Message

Geert Uytterhoeven June 1, 2018, 9:28 a.m. UTC

"%pCr" formats the current rate of a clock, and calls clk_get_rate().
The latter obtains a mutex, hence it must not be called from atomic
context.

Remove support for this rarely-used format, as vsprintf() (and e.g.
printk()) must be callable from any context.

Any remaining out-of-tree users will start seeing the clock's name
printed instead of its rate.
