Thanks for telling, I can see 'phN' is used in many places, but haven't
figured out how it's parsed, e.g in format_decode() it's not related.
Anyway, I may need dig further or search to get it.

Oh, I meant that we may not need to enforce that because the size of
vmlinux_build_id can be guaranteed, always 20, we do not need to specify
the '20'? Afaik, we usually specify the format size when the string size
is variable, and we want to add '0' to make the width of printing is
fixed. Anyway, this dones't matter much.
