I think this patch should be split in at least two, please read below.

And please write here an outline of what will happen so that it can find
the right /proc files using machine->root_dir, etc, so that casual (and
experienced too) hackers can figure out what your patch does more
quickly.

So the hunk above, the one that makes it bail out if it is a default
guest, I think it should be a separate patch with an explanation that
since pid is equal to 0:

#define DEFAULT_GUEST_KERNEL_ID         (0)

opendir("/proc/0/task") will fail, so its better to check if it is the
default guest instead of trying to opendir a directory that doesn't
exists and print a meaningless message in debug mode:

                pr_debug("couldn't open %s\n", filename);

Then, the rest, which is to use machine->root_dir to find the right proc
dir, probably via sshfs (right?), will work as expected _and_ is a
separate, unrelated to the above (bailing out on default guest pid))
patch, ok?

This one should be on the first patch, together with the other
machine__is_default_guest() test, please look for any other such test
and group them in a separate patch, as outlined above.

One more :-)
