Indeed, in kernel doing
   printk("%p%");
will have following compilation failure.

We could do ispunct(fmt[i + 1]) only in the above 'if' statement.
But your implementation is right too and maybe cleaner, so let us
keep your above implementation.

Could you move comment '/* just kernel pointers */' to previous
if statement.

Also could you add Reported-by mentioned by Florent Revest
in the next revision?
