Subject: [PATCH 00/12] Clean up code to use native kernel functions when convert or check hex digits

From: Andy Shevchenko <ext-andriy.shevchenko@...ia.com>

Hello.

There are set of paches related to hex2bin, bin2hex, isxdigit custom
implementations. All of them are changed by native kernel functions. In case of
hex2bin there is generalized method [hex_to_bin] to do such thing which is put under
lib/hexxdump.c (kernel.h).

TODO: apply hex_to_bin() to kgdb code.

Andy Shevchenko (12):
  isdn: remove ishexdigit() in regard to isxdigit()
  audit: use kernel's method to get byte in hex form
  staging: remove unused methods
  scsi: ibmmca: use kernel native convertor
  lib: introduce common method to convert hex digits
  drivers: net: optimize hex2bin()
  usb: atm: speedtch: use new hex_to_bin() method
  net: use new hex_to_bin() method
  drivers: net: use kernel's method to get byte in hex form
  drivers: net: use new hex_to_bin() method
  drivers: isdn: use new hex_to_bin() method
  drivers: wireless: use kernel's method to get byte in hex form
