[ Upstream commit 738fc998b639407346a9e026514f0562301462cd ]
Clang's -Wformat-overflow and -Wformat-truncation have chosen to check '%p' unlike GCC but it does not know about the kernel's pointer extensions in lib/vsprintf.c, so the developers split that part of the warning out for the kernel to disable because there will always be false positives.
Commit 908dd508276d ("kbuild: enable -Wformat-truncation on clang") did disabled these warnings but only in a block that would be called when W=1 was not passed, so they would appear with W=1. Move the disabling of the non-kprintf warnings to a block that always runs so that they are never seen, regardless of warning level.
