Here is my attempt:

         if (len == 0)
             pr_warn_once("%s: sg_dma_len() == 0\n", __func__);
         else if (i && (i != (dma_buffers - 1)) && (len & ~PAGE_MASK))
             pr_warn_once("%s: following block not page aligned\n",
__func__);
         else if (i && (addr & ~PAGE_MASK)) {
             pr_warn_once("%s: block %u, DMA address %pad doesn't align
with PAGE_MASK 0x%lx\n", __func__, i, &addr, PAGE_MASK);
             pr_warn_once("sg_dma_is_swiotlb: %d, dma_flags: %x\n",
sg_dma_is_swiotlb(sg), sg->dma_flags);
             pr_warn_once("type = %s\n", (type == PAGELIST_WRITE) ?
"PAGELIST_WRITE" : "PAGELIST_READ");
             if (buf)
                 pr_warn_once("buf = %p, count = %zu\n", buf, count);
             else
                 pr_warn_once("ubuf = %p, count = %zu\n", ubuf, count);
         }

Output:

[   66.184030] create_pagelist: block 1, DMA address 0x00000000f5fc7800
doesn't align with PAGE_MASK 0xfffffffffffff000
[   66.184056] sg_dma_is_swiotlb: 0, dma_flags: 0
[   66.184063] type = PAGELIST_READ
[   66.184066] ubuf = 00000000266a70a7, count = 0
