[PATCH] KVM: remove printing of vcpu address
From: Tobin C. Harding
Date: Mon Oct 09 2017 - 02:31:58 EST
Code currently prints the address of the kvm_vcpu structure in an error
message. It is not immediately clear what value this address adds to
the error string, we can use the vcpu ID instead. Printing unnecessary
kernel addresses to dmesg poses a security risk.
Remove the address from error message output, show vcpu ID instead.
