The printk family of functions supports %ps and %pS conversion

specifiers with equivalent functionality remain supported. A number of
users of %pf and %pF remain.
This patchsets converts the existing users of %pf and %pF to %ps and %pS,
respectively, and removes support for the deprecated %pf and %pF.
The patches apply cleanly both on 5.1-rc1 as well as on Linux-next. No new
%pf or %pF users have been added in the meantime so the patch is
sufficient as itself on linux-next, too.
Do you know in which commit they became deprecated, so the backporters
know how far this can be backported safely?
Thanks!
