[PATCH 04/13] x86/pkeys/selftests: Avoid printf-in-signal deadlocks

[Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>]

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

printf() and friends are unusable in signal handlers.  They deadlock.
The pkey selftest does not do any normal printing in signal handlers,
only extra debugging.  So, just print the format string so we get
*some* output when debugging.
