commit 6a2cbc58d6c9d90cd74288cc497c2b45815bc064 upstream. Since the raw memory 'data' does not go forward, it will dump repeated data if the data length is more than 8. If we want to dump longer data blocks, we need to repeatedly call macro SEQ_PUT_HEX_FIELD. I think it is a bit redundant, and multiple function calls also affect the performance.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
