Hmmm... I think I'd just go with "%*pb" and use the width as meaning
the bitwidth.  It isn't perfect but should be a good enough compromise
especially given that fancy dynamic padding isn't something we do
often in the kernel and there's a recourse for that - printing to
string buffer and print that with %*s - which is what we need to do
right now anyway.

Thanks.
