Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] docs: printk-formats: Treat char as always unsigned
Date: Mon,  3 Jul 2023 17:58:39 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230703145839.14248-2-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230703145839.14248-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>

The Linux kernel switched to have char be equivalent to usigned char.
Reflect this in the printk specifiers.

Fixes: 3bc753c06dd0 ("kbuild: treat char as always unsigned")
