My personal preference would be to use ACRN_GUEST.  Inevitably there will
be a need to wrap ACRN code with an ifdef, and seeing "GUEST" in such
cases immediately lets readers know the code in question is related to
running as a guest without having to remember that ACRN is a hypervisor.
This is especially true for readers that have never heard of ACRN.
