I understand that the printf test module needs this hook, and I
considered adding similar things for other tests when I originally wrote
the printf test module. But can we please make that
#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_TEST_PRINTF)
int test_printf_pointer_access;
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(test_printf_pointer_access);
#else
#define test_printf_pointer_access 0
#endif
and maybe also wrap the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL in another #if
IS_MODULE(CONFIG_TEST_PRINTF). It's not something random modules should
play with, and I'd hate adding ~100 bytes (or whatever the export
metadata uses these days) to vmlinux for the sake of a module that is
most likely not built at all.
