[PATCH] jent: use safe format string parameters

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Jul 24 2015 - 18:41:41 EST


Since the API for jent_panic() does not include format string parameters,
adjust the call to panic() to use a literal string to avoid any future
callers from leaking format strings into the panic message.
