Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Emit an error on formats with 0x%<decimal>
Date: Mon, 03 Aug 2015 09:15:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438618534.30149.37.camel@perches.com> (raw)

Using 0x%d is wrong.  Emit a message when it happens.

Miscellanea:

improve the %Lu warning to match formats like %16Lu
