[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 1/9] virtio: enhance virtio_error messages

[Ladi Prosek]

Output like "Virtqueue size exceeded" is not much useful in identifying the
culprit. This commit adds virtio device name (e.g. "virtio-input") and id
if set (e.g. "mouse0") to all virtio error messages to improve debuggability.

Some virtio devices (virtio-scsi, virtio-serial) insert a bus between the
proxy object and the virtio backends, so a helper function is added to walk
the object hierarchy and find the right proxy object to extract the id from.
