This looks fine. format_page_flags() does the same for %pGp.

Also looks fine. %pGp does the same.

I wonder if it would help to write the value. Something like:
page_type: 0x0ace5768(no type)
That said. I am not familiar with the page types and am not sure
about the semantic of this value. MM people should decide what they
want to see in this case.

I guess that you are talking about the line:
+ pr_warn("page_type: %pGt\n", &head->page_type);
Yes, it would be better to have implementation of %pGt modifier
in one patch and add the user in another one.
