I have got a commentary from Uros Bizjak about previous work [1].

Additionally I'd like to sort out patches for two series - one is
about clean up code and substitute custom functions by existing ones,
the other is about introducing hex_to_bin() helper.

So, I'm going to prepare mentioned series. Please decline that one,
but patch #1 which already has been Acked. I will include Cc field as
well.
Meanwhile I found more places with the same functionality.

P.S. Actually the idea to fix this mess was come to me by Alexander Shishkin.
