how useful the pr_err() is, given that it contains no information
that would help identifying which guest failed to pause.

Do other printk-s contain such info? All I can see so far is
`#define pr_fmt(fmt) "kvm-guest: " fmt` which doesn't point
at any particular VM.

Look for kvm_{err,info,debug...} and vcpu_{err,debug...}, all of
which will at least give you a PID. Even x86 uses it.
