I think whenever a sizeof(unsigned type) that is less than sizeof(int) is
emitted with vsprintf, the preferred format specifier should be %u not %d.

And this is not a promotion of an argument to int via varargs.
The arithmetic did the promotion.

I suggest s/%hh/%/ for all the uses here, not just this one.

checkpatch could do this somewhat automatically.
Of course any changes it suggests need human review.
