+Flags bitfields such as page flags, gfp_flags:
+
+ %pGp referenced|uptodate|lru|active|private
+ %pGg GFP_USER|GFP_DMA32|GFP_NOWARN
+ %pGv read|exec|mayread|maywrite|mayexec|denywrite
+
+ For printing flags bitfields as a collection of symbolic constants that
+ would construct the value. The type of flags is given by the third
+ character. Currently supported are [p]age flags, [v]ma_flags (both
+ expect unsigned long *) and [g]fp_flags (expects gfp_t *). The flag
+ names and print order depends on the particular type.
+
+ Note that this format should not be used directly in TP_printk() part
+ of a tracepoint. Instead, use the show_*_flags() functions from
+ <trace/events/mmflags.h>.
