Not about the kvm subsystem, but generically there are
many of these that could be removed.

$ git grep -w TP_printk | grep '\\n' | wc -l
45

Also, aren't all TP_printk formats supposed to be single line?

If not, these are odd as well.

$ git grep -w TP_printk | grep '\\n[^"]'
include/trace/events/9p.h:          TP_printk("clnt %lu %s(tag = %d)\n%.3x: 
%16ph\n%.3x: %16ph\n",
net/tipc/trace.h:       TP_printk("%s\n%s", __get_str(header), __get_str(buf))
net/tipc/trace.h:       TP_printk("%s\n%s", __get_str(header), __get_str(buf))
net/tipc/trace.h:       TP_printk("<%u> %s\n%s%s", __entry->portid, 
__get_str(header),
net/tipc/trace.h:       TP_printk("<%s> %s\n%s", __entry->name, 
__get_str(header),
net/tipc/trace.h:       TP_printk("<%x> %s\n%s", __entry->addr, 
__get_str(header),

Perhaps the documentation files around these formats
        Documentation/trace/events.rst
        Documentation/trace/tracepoints.rst
could be improved as well.
