? Sorry, i also cannot see the problem you describe.
The way print_checksum worked until now can be found very
often (also e.g. inside the kernel) and it works just absolutely fine
for me. 
Incrementing and returning buf (or any other non-constant function parameter,
being just a kind of runtime-preset local variable) is nothing wrong,
special or abnormal.
And why should the sprintf always be/produce an empty string?
It will always give you 16 characters (not including the terminating zero).

I really appreciate the effort you put into all this, but
this special patch is more or less just a artificial pad out.

Thanks,
Frank
