Here is the refactoring to show that. It can go via PRINTK or VFS tree. I have tested this on x86, but I believe the same result will be on big-endian CPUs (I deduced that from how strtox() works). I also run KUnit tests. * patches from https://patch.msgid.link/20260331070519.5974-1-ddiss@suse.de: kstrtox: Drop extern keyword in the simple_strtox() declarations vsprintf: Revert "add simple_strntoul" initramfs: Refactor to use hex2bin() instead of custom approach initramfs: Sort headers alphabetically initramfs_test: test header fields with 0x hex prefix initramfs_test: add fill_cpio() inject_ox parameter Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260331070519.5974-1-ddiss@suse.de Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner --- 1ca179a8538467ef770bfe68a184f6c74c657fef
