hi Jerone,
I think this is good for debugging to find unsupported hardware, but it should 
not be enabled by default (you could get a printf storm if a guest workload 
does stupid things). Maybe qemu has some debug/verbose options you can use.
And additionally it would be useful for the dcr_write patch to print the value 
it tried to write.
I also don't know if we really need that caps-locked in the output.

just a suggestion

        printf("%s - failed writing 0x%x @ 0x%x\n", dcrn, data);
