[PATCH] disass: Add /x modifier to print offsets in hex

From: Fam Zheng <famzheng@amazon.com>

Backtrace messages printed by Linux kernel and Xen have hex offsets,
e.g.:

(XEN) Xen call trace:
(XEN)    [<ffff82d0402eefbb>] R guest_walk_tables_2_levels+0x189/0x66d
(XEN)    [<ffff82d0402edbbd>] F hap_p2m_ga_to_gfn_2_levels+0x112/0x25b
(XEN)    [<ffff82d0402edd22>] F hap_gva_to_gfn_2_levels+0x1c/0x1e
(XEN)    [<ffff82d0402f832e>] F paging_gva_to_gfn+0x14a/0x167

Having this modifier saves converting between hex values from the
backtrace log and offsets in gdb disass output.
