Hi Joe,

thanks for your comment. Indeed using print_hex_dump() would be a good idea
since it would avoid each driver to implement its own version of buffer dumps.
Reading the source code of print_hex_dump(), the output format would change a
little bit:
the output would no longer be aligned to JFFS2_BUFDUMP_BYTES_PER_LINE boundary
using leading spaces.
If it's ok to change the output format it's good for me as well.
