[NSWI004] dump function question

Hello.

You do not need to implement generic padding functionality.

You can use something like this to print the instruction with leading 
zeros (you can use a similar approach for %pF too).

uint32_t instr = ...;
printk("%x%x%x%x%x%x%x%x",
   instr >> 28,
   (instr >> 24) % 16,
   ...


It is not a very nice solution (maintenance and readability-wise) but 
acceptable for a function that is used only for debugging.

Hope this helps,
