Dereference __fourcc ...

.. and then sanity check it?

Doesn't that want to come before everything else, including the
check_pointer()?

Are you sure you want to pass non-ascii characters through?

I really don't see the point of these checks. Why check here but not
before we output a non-control character? That seems rather arbitrary.
Also, assume we do take this break, (to be continued below [*])

You can drop my_spec and just use "s = hex_byte_pack(s, c);".

[*] then AFAICT this WARN_ON_ONCE is guaranteed to also fire [the
left-hand side is the same as before, the right-hand side consists of a
quantity s-__s that can only be larger or equal than before and a
constant sizeof(FOURCC_HEX_NUMBER) that is definitely larger], hence we
do not enter this if () and [**]

Urgh. Don't we have an ARRAY_END() macro that let's you call this with
(s, ARRAY_END(__s)) as buf, end?

Why, when special_hex_number returns a pointer to one-past-its-output?

[**] __s does not get nul-terminated, so we call string() with stack
garbage.

I'd say just drop those checks, and de-obfuscate the sizing of the __s
array so it becomes obviously large enough for what the algorithm can
produce. Just

char __s[sizeof("(01)(02)(03)(04) little-endian (0x01020304)")]

or something like that should be sufficient.
