Ok, I suggest we leave it as posted.

Just to clarify, as a side note: fmt layout is { '[Ii]', '6', 'c' } where the 'c' is
optional (so fmt[2] can also be 0), but still tested:

static noinline_for_stack
char *ip6_addr_string(char *buf, char *end, const u8 *addr,
struct printf_spec spec, const char *fmt)
{
char ip6_addr[sizeof("xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:255.255.255.255")];

if (fmt[0] == 'I' && fmt[2] == 'c')
ip6_compressed_string(ip6_addr, addr);
else
ip6_string(ip6_addr, addr, fmt);

return string(buf, end, ip6_addr, spec);
}

In the patch, those conditions are respected as well.

Thanks,

Daniel
