If the format is intentional and shouldn't be changed to the generic
one, this has to be mentioned in the code as some proper comment.

The use of hex_dump_to_buffer() or whatever the standard macro is a
"right thing" in general.  From what I can see, the home-baked code
does nothing but writing in 32bit words, so without the explanation,
no one can see the reason to stick with it.
