The CDC-ECM specification requires an USB gadget to send the host MAC address as uppercase hex string. This change adds the appropriate modifier.

The diffstat here, or for some other patch in the same series, definitely ought to mention lib/test_printf.c.

This seems broken, and I'm surprised the compiler doesn't warn about separator possibly being uninitialized further down. I'm also surprised your testing hasn't caught this. For reference, the full switch statement is currently
switch (fmt[1]) { case 'F': separator = '-'; break;
case 'R': reversed = true; fallthrough;
default: separator = ':'; break; }

I think this becomes quite hard to follow. We have string_upper() in linux/string_helpers.h, so I'd rather just leave this loop alone and do
if (uppercase) string_upper(mac_addr, mac_addr);
after the nul-termination.
