No.  What would make sense is turning __dump_page() inside-out.
Something like printk("%pP\n");

In lib/vsprintf.c, there's a big switch statement in the function
pointer() that handles printing things like IPv6 addresses, dentries,
and function symbols.

Then we can do whatever we want around the new %pP, including choosing
the log level, adding additional information, choosing to dump the page
to a sysfs file, etc, etc.
