2014-10-14lib / string_helpers: introduce string_escape_mem()Andy Shevchenko
This is almost the opposite function to string_unescape(). Nevertheless it handles \0 and could be used for any byte buffer. The documentation is supplied together with the function prototype. The test cases covers most of the scenarios and would be expanded later on.

2013-04-30lib/string_helpers: introduce generic string_unescapeAndy Shevchenko
There are several places in kernel where modules unescapes input to convert C-Style Escape Sequences into byte codes. The patch provides generic implementation of such approach. Test cases are also included into the patch.
