I think these print messages need to more than just debug. The first
one is a warning, whereas the final two are hard errors liable to impact
the correct running of the system.
Especially as you're putting them in to try and spot problem cases, they
should be visible by default for when we inevitably get bug reports to
xen-devel saying "something changed with passthrough in Xen 4.16".
