Because it doesn't compile:
arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:1317:10: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘prefix’
pr_info(prefix, current->comm, current->pid);
^
./include/linux/printk.h:288:21: note: in definition of macro ‘pr_fmt’
#define pr_fmt(fmt) fmt
^
`pr_info(prefix, ...)` expands to `printk("\001" "6" prefix, ...)`,
which is an invalid string concatenation.
`pr_info("%s", ...)` expands to `printk("\001" "6" "%s", ...)`, which is
valid.

I don't think so.
pc gets incremented at the bottom of the loop:
pc += sizeof(int);
Adjusting pc is necessary at each iteration. Leaving this block inside
the loop seems correct.
