This was previously printing the bytes of the raw bitmask so that the mask was
printed in packed hex.  Now it is printing each bit as a 2 character hex value
(so you now end up with 01 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 instead of c4 for example).
Re-synthesizing the packed hex output may not be useful, but perhaps you could
print it as binary instead by only printing 0 or 1 for each bit without spaces
(or maybe only spaces between each 8 bits?).  Something like:

    for (i = 0; i < x->reg_mask.size (); ++i)
      {
        if (i % 8 == 0)
          gdb_printf(f, _(" "));
        gdb_printf (f, _("%u"), x->reg_mask[i]);
      }
