Subject[PATCH 1/2] mm, printk: introduce new format string for flags
Date
In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed for
debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make them easier to
interpret independently on kernel version and config, we want to dump also the
symbolic flag names. So far this has been done with repeated calls to
pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not usable for e.g. sysfs export.

To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends printk()
format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pgp), gfp_flags (%pgg)
and vma flags (%pgv). Existing users of dump_flag_names() are converted and
simplified.

It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the %p
format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel
structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a non-critical
path is negligible.

I'm sending it on top of the page_owner series, as it's already in mmotm.
But to reduce churn (in case this approach is accepted), I can later
incorporate it and resend it whole.
