Perhaps
		print_hex_dump(str, DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET, buf, len);

I wanted to print the "str" as a subject line, like this:

mwifiex data: tx_buf:
00000000: 34 8c 24 a0 ff ff ff ff 36 72 24 a0 ff ff ff ff  4.$.....6r$.....
00000010: d7 7f 24 a0 ff ff ff ff 80 8e 24 a0 ff ff ff ff  ..$.......$.....
00000020: df 7d 24 a0 ff ff                                .}$...

The "str" will serve as the prefix strings if we use
print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG, str, DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET, 16, 1, buf, len, true);

mwifiex data: tx_buf:00000000: 34 8c 24 a0 ff ff ff ff 36 72 24 a0 ff ff ff ff  4.$.....6r$.....
mwifiex data: tx_buf:00000010: d7 7f 24 a0 ff ff ff ff 80 8e 24 a0 ff ff ff ff  ..$.......$.....
mwifiex data: tx_buf:00000020: df 7d 24 a0 ff ff                                .}$...

I'm okay with this format too.

Thanks,

Bing
