How fast!

Martin, I have several patches on SCSI subsytem like this one. Some of
them didn't manage kernel (even having Ack!) for years already.
Is it okay if I collect them together and send a bunch once again Cc'ing you?

Re-sending to linux-scsi is fine. The trick is finding people willing to
review them...

Generally speaking, it hasn't been for lack of review.

SCSI has been one of the slowest subsystems to apply
simple defect correction (not whitespace style) patches.

Mostly these patches have been ignored.

Applied to 4.5/scsi-queue.

[PATCH] [SCSI] osd: fix signed char versus %02x issue

[Rasmus Villemoes]

If char is signed and one of these bytes happen to have a value
outside the ascii range, the corresponding output will consist of
"ff" followed by the two hex chars that were actually
intended. One way to fix it would be to change the casts to (u8*) aka
(unsigned char*), but it is much simpler (and generates smaller code)
to use the %ph extension which was created for such short hexdumps.
