[ Upstream commit c0289f67f7d6a0dfba0e92cfe661a5c70c8c6e92 ]
The firmware tracer's format string validation and parameter counting did not properly handle escaped percent signs (%%). This caused fw_tracer to count more parameters when trace format strings contained literal percent characters.
To fix it, allow %% to pass string validation and skip %% sequences when counting parameters since they represent literal percent signs rather than format specifiers.
