QEMU currently has a standard method to report errors with error_repot(). This ensure a sane and standard format when printing errors. This series is attempting to extend this functionality for warnings and information as well.
At the moment only one error is being converted, I wanted to get the implementation nailed down a little bit before I started converting others. This patch renames error_print_loc() function to be more clear, but I didn't bother renaming the others. It seems silly to change error_printf() to error_warning_printf() and printf is already taken so I just left it as is. I also didn't change the current error output as that would probably break backwards compatibilty for anyone who is parsing logs.
