+Subject: [PATCH] Overhaul valid_field()
+
+e5905c4b ("Added control character check") introduced checking for
+control characters but had the logic inverted, so it rejects all
+characters that are not control ones.
+
+Cast the character to `unsigned char` before passing to the character
+checking functions to avoid UB.
+
+Use strpbrk(3) for the illegal character test and return early.
