[PATCH 3/4] lib/vsprintf.c: Eliminate duplicate hex string array

[Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>]

gcc doesn't merge or overlap const char[] objects with identical
contents (probably language lawyers would also insist that these
things have different addresses), but there's no reason to have the
string "0123456789ABCDEF" occur in multiple places. hex_asc_upper is
declared in kernel.h and defined in lib/hexdump.c, which is
unconditionally compiled in.
