[PATCH] Reduce stack used by lib/hexdump.c

[Joe Perches <joe@perches.com>]

200 bytes on stack might be a bit much.

Size goes up to
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   1142       0       0    1142     476 lib/hexdump.o
Without the WARN_ON
   1053       0       0    1053     41d lib/hexdump.o
Before this patch
   1004       0       0    1004     3ec lib/hexdump.o

Win some/lose some...
