There are a bunch of these you haven't caught:

arch/arm64/kernel/signal.c:             pr_info_ratelimited("%s[%d]: bad frame in %s: pc=%08llx sp=%08llx\n",
arch/arm64/kernel/signal32.c:           pr_info_ratelimited("%s[%d]: bad frame in %s: pc=%08llx sp=%08llx\n",
arch/arm64/kernel/signal32.c:           pr_info_ratelimited("%s[%d]: bad frame in %s: pc=%08llx sp=%08llx\n",
arch/arm64/kvm/sys_regs.c:      kvm_err("Unsupported guest CP%d access at: %08lx\n",
arch/arm64/kvm/trace.h: TP_printk("guest executed wf%c at: 0x%08lx",
arch/arm64/kvm/trace.h: TP_printk("HVC at 0x%08lx (r0: 0x%08lx, imm: 0x%lx)",
arch/arm64/kvm/trace.h: TP_printk("%s %s reg %d (0x%08llx)", __entry->fn,  __entry->is_write?"write to":"read from", __entry->reg, __entry->write_value)
arch/arm64/mm/fault.c:  pr_alert("[%08lx] *pgd=%016llx", addr, pgd_val(*pgd));
arch/arm64/mm/fault.c:  pr_alert("Unable to handle kernel %s at virtual address %08lx\n",
arch/arm64/mm/fault.c:          pr_info("%s[%d]: unhandled %s (%d) at 0x%08lx, esr 0x%03x\n",
arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c:            pr_warn("fix_to_virt(FIX_BTMAP_BEGIN): %08lx\n",
arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c:            pr_warn("fix_to_virt(FIX_BTMAP_END):   %08lx\n",

so it would probably make sense to fix these to be consistent.
