vsprintf: Add extension %pSR - print_symbol replacement
print_symbol takes a long and converts it to a function
name and offset. %pS does something similar, but doesn't
translate the address via __builtin_extract_return_addr.
%pSR does the translation.
This will enable replacing multiple calls like
printk(...);
printk_symbol(addr);
printk("\n");
with a single non-interleavable in dmesg
printk("... %pSR\n", (void *)addr);
Update documentation too.
