I just read on lwn about the implementation of `%[` in sscanf. Just
wanted to point out my implementation (which supports `]` ranges (`-`)
and negation (`^`)) and let you know that you are free to take
code/inspiration from it:

Thanks Shahbaz, this is helpful. You are of course welcome to
submit a patch adding ranges and other missing features to the
kernel sscanf() as well, if that's something you're interested in
doing.
