Subject: [PATCH] scanf: handle the L modifier for integers

Look at this code:
   char str[] = "sigmask: 0x200";
   long long mask = 0;
   int ret;

   ret = sscanf(str, "sigmask: %Lx", &mask));
   printf("%d %llx\n", ret, mask);

Without this patch, ret will be 1 and mask will be 0. It is obviously
incorrect. According to the man page, L should work like ll:

 L Indicates that the conversion will be either e, f, or g and the
   next pointer is a pointer to long double or the conversion will
   be d, i, o, u, or x and the next pointer is a pointer to long
   long.
