Subject: [PATCH 02/11] mm: debug: deal with a new family of MM pointers

This teaches our printing functions about a new family of MM pointer that it
could now print.

I've picked %pZ because %pm and %pM were already taken, so I figured it
doesn't really matter what we go with. We also have the option of stealing
one of those two...
