Stan, Could you take a look at this patch?

I think this only papers over the bug.. also BPF selftests seem to break
with this change.

Looking again at the syzkaller trace :

[...]
Please remove unsupported %\0 in format string
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5068 at lib/vsprintf.c:2675 format_decode+0xa03/0xba0 lib/vsprintf.c:2675
[...]

We need to fix bpf_bprintf_prepare() instead to reject invalid fmts such
as %0 and similar.
