Subject: [PATCH v2 3/7] lib/hexdump.c: Optionally suppress lines of repeated bytes
Date:   Wed,  8 May 2019 17:01:43 +1000

From: Alastair D'Silva <alastair@d-silva.org>

Some buffers may only be partially filled with useful data, while the rest
is padded (typically with 0x00 or 0xff).

This patch introduces a flag to allow the supression of lines of repeated
bytes, which are replaced with '** Skipped %u bytes of value 0x%x **'

An inline wrapper function is provided for backwards compatibility with
existing code, which maintains the original behaviour.
