The format specifier in fprintf is "%u", that "%u" should use
unsigned int type instead.the problem is discovered by reading code.

v1->v2:
modify commit info add how to find the problem in the log
v2->v3:
Seems this can use macro WTERMSIG like those above usage, rather than
changing the print format.
v3->v4:
Now the commit summary doesn't match the change you are making.
Also WTERMSIG() is incorrect for this conditional code path.
See comments below in the code path.
I would leave the v2 code intact. How are you testing this change?
Please include the details in the change log.
v4->v5:
Compile the kernel for testing using make
