UUID/GUIDs are somewhat common in kernel source.

Standardize the printed style of UUID/GUIDs by using
another extension to %p.

%pUb:   01020304-0506-0708-090a-0b0c0d0e0f10
%pUB:   01020304-0506-0708-090A-0B0C0D0E0F10 (upper case)
%pUl:   04030201-0605-0807-090a-0b0c0d0e0f10
%pUL:   04030201-0605-0807-090A-0B0C0D0E0F10 (upper case)

%pU defaults to %pUb
