checkpatch: add ability to find bad uses of vsprintf %p<foo> extensions
%pK was at least once misused at %pk in an out-of-tree module. This
lead to some security concerns. Add the ability to track single and
multiple line statements for misuses of %p<foo>.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: add helpful comment into lib/vsprintf.c]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: text tweak]
