  The kernel already has a helper to print a hexdump of a small
buffer via pointer extension. Use that instead of open coded
variant.

In long term it helps to kill pr_cont() or at least narrow down
its use.

Isn't that just:
		i = 16 - copy_from_user(insn, (unsigned char __user *)regs->ip, 16);
(the 16 should be sizeof (insn))
