Subject: [PATCH v2 7/8] virt: vbox: Log unknown ioctl requests as error

Every now and then upstream adds new ioctls without notifying us,
log unknown ioctl requests as an error to catch these.

Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@...hat.com>
---
Changes in v2:
- Rate-limit the error logging to avoid userspace potentially DOS-ing the log
