Calling a "printf" style function is already insanely expensive. [...] The "printk" and similar functions all have the "__printf" attribute. I don't know of a modification to that attribute which can turn off this type of check.
Perhaps you can split vprintk_store in the middle (after the call to vsnprintf), and offer the second half as a function of its own (e.g. "puts"). Then the tldr could be
- printk(msg); + puts(msg);
