Currently it is vm-$currentpid which works as long as there is just one

when syzkaller (syscall fuzzer) is running so only one VM is present in
the debugfs for a given process.

This changes the debugfs node to include the LPID which alone should be
system wide unique. This leaves the existing pid for the convenience of
matching the VM's debugfs with the running userspace process (QEMU).

thanks.

Strangely it also fixes a bunch of

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference in corrupted
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request in corrupted

I was having 3 of these for every hour of running syzkaller and not anymore with this patch.
