Subject: [RFC PATCH] lib/vsprintf.c: Simplify uuid_string()
I didn't see your decimal print changes before they went in, but great
work! That's a real "why didn't I think of that?" change.
Anyway, merging some local patches I have with that prompted me to look
over that file and I came up with the following two patches which might
be interesting. RFC until I build a test harness and made sure there
aren't any stupid bugs, but the ideas are simple enough.
They're so small I'm breaking protocol and including them both in the same
e-mail.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] lib/vsprintf.c: Simplify uuid_string()
Rather than have a second pass to upcase the buffer, just make the
hex lookup table variable.
I suspect it's a speedup, but since this is not hot code, the important
part is that it shrinks the function from 332 to 256 bytes.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] lib/vsprintf.c: Further simplify uuid_string().
Make the endianness permutation table do double duty by having it
list not source offsets, but destination offsets. Thus, it both puts
the bytes in the right order and skips the hyphens.
This further shrinks the code from 256 to 214 bytes. Eliminating
erratic branches probably helps speed, too.
