scripts: checkpatch: diagnose uses of %pA in the C side as errors

Browse Source 
The `%pA` format specifier is only intended to be used from Rust.

`checkpatch.pl` already gives a warning for invalid specificers:

    WARNING: Invalid vsprintf pointer extension '%pA'

This makes it an error and introduces an explanatory message:

    ERROR: Invalid vsprintf pointer extension '%pA' - '%pA' is only intended to be used from Rust code
