I do not suggest this as reasonable. There are 10's of thousands of uses of 0x%x in the kernel and converting them to save a byte seems unnecessary. $ git grep -P '0x%[\*\d\.]*[xX]' | wc -l 26120 And the %#x style is by far the lesser used form $ git grep -P '%#[\*\d\.]*[xX]' | wc -l 2726 Also, the sized form of %#[size]x is frequently misused where the size does not account for the initial 0x output. > diff --git a/drivers/misc/ocxl/config.c b/drivers/misc/ocxl/config.c [] > @@ -178,9 +178,9 @@ static int read_dvsec_vendor(struct pci_dev *dev) > pci_read_config_dword(dev, pos + OCXL_DVSEC_VENDOR_DLX_VERS, &dlx); > > dev_dbg(&dev->dev, "Vendor specific DVSEC:\n"); > - dev_dbg(&dev->dev, " CFG version = 0x%x\n", cfg); > - dev_dbg(&dev->dev, " TLX version = 0x%x\n", tlx); > - dev_dbg(&dev->dev, " DLX version = 0x%x\n", dlx); > + dev_dbg(&dev->dev, " CFG version = %#x\n", cfg); > + dev_dbg(&dev->dev, " TLX version = %#x\n", tlx); > + dev_dbg(&dev->dev, " DLX version = %#x\n", dlx); etc...
