Instead of open-coding this each time, perhaps it would be appropriate
to define a macro to possibly put a character and also advance the
pointer.

Assuming that the locals are consistently "out" and "end", something
like

    #define addch(c) do { \
            if(out < end) *out = c; \
            ++out; \
    } while(0)

modulo any errors or differences with standard kernel coding style.
