when syzkaller (syscall fuzzer) is running so only one VM is present in
the debugfs for a given process.

This changes the debugfs node to include the LPID which alone should be
system wide unique. This leaves the existing pid for the convenience of
matching the VM's debugfs with the running userspace process (QEMU).

Looks like this is not enough as syzkaller still manages to cause the error message, I need more robust approach as in https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1472025/ or alternatively move this debugfs stuff under the platform-independent directory, how about that?
