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.
