string_escape_mem_ascii() followed by seq_escape_mem_ascii() is completely
non-flexible and shouldn't be exist from day 1.

Replace it with properly called string_escape_mem().

NAKed-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Reason: use of seq_get_buf().  Which should have been static inline in
fs/seq_file.c, to start with.

Again, any new uses of seq_get_buf()/seq_commit() are grounds for automatic
NAK.  These interfaces *will* be withdrawn.

I see.

You meant that this is no way to get rid of this guy?
Any suggestions how to replace that API with a newer one?

seq_escape_mem(), perhaps?

I think I have a better idea. What about adding seq_escape_with_flags()
and seq_escape() --> seq_escape_with_flags(..., ESCAPE_OCTAL, ...) ?

Would it work for you?

Ah, it wouldn't work for the user, because it wants to pass the buffer size.
Okay, I'll take your suggestion, thanks!
