I was a bit surprised to see this warning although the standard says:
The argument shall be a pointer to void. The value of the pointer is
converted to a sequence of printing wide characters, in an
implementation-defined manner.
But I think we often do this in dpdk, without any warning:
struct foo_s *foo = ...;
printf("%p\n", foo);
After some search, the reason why you get a warning here is that you
compile a C file that includes this header with the "-pedantic" flag.
So, I think doing this fix is justified for header files as we cannot
predict which options are used by the user of these headers.
