I think you got a bit too trigger-happy:


        p += sprintf(p, "key[%d] alg=CCMP key_set=%d "
-                    "tx_pn=%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x "
-                    "rx_pn=%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x "
+                    "tx_pn=%s "
+                    "rx_pn=%s "
                     "format_errors=%d replays=%d decrypt_errors=%d\n",
                     ccmp->key_idx, ccmp->key_set,
-                    MAC_ARG(ccmp->tx_pn), MAC_ARG(ccmp->rx_pn),
+                    print_mac(mac, ccmp->tx_pn), print_mac(mac2, ccmp->rx_pn),

the PN is a number, not a MAC address :) The fact that it used MAC_ARG,
was, I guess, just laziness of the original author since the PN is also
6 bytes long. That said, I can live with it being printed this way too,
it's just a bit weird.

Going to be fun to merge with my 70 outstanding patches though :)
