%pv is your friend.  Like Linux, we have custom printk formats.  In this
case, passing 'v' as a parameter to %pv will cause d$Xv$Y to be
printed.  (The example below predates %pv being introduced).

No need for _synchronous() here.  _synchronous() should only be used
when you can't safely recover.  It ends up spinning in a tight loop
waiting for the next timer interrupt, is anything up to 30ms away.
