[LTP] [PATCH] mmap04: Make sure the scanf address format is at least 8 hex chars

The addresses in /proc/self/maps are at least 8 hex chars. Zeros are
added to the front of the address when shorted (both on 32bit and
64bit systems.
Under valgrind the mmaps used in kernel/syscalls/mmap/mmap04.c come
out very low in the address space and might be shorter than 8 hex
chars. This causes the scanf to fail:
mmap04.c:62: TBROK: Expected 1 conversions got 0 FILE '/proc/self/maps'
Fix this by using "%08" PRIxPTR when creating the fmt used.
