You're right, the vq pointer is useless in isolation. We don't know which virtio device or which virtqueue number. With the full context of a trace it would be possible to correlate the vq pointer if we had trace events for vdev and vq setup. Adding custom formatters is could be tricky since the format string is passed only to tracing backends that use it, like UST. And UST uses its own sprintf implementation which we don't have direct control over. I think we just need to guarantee that any pointer can be correlated with previous trace entries that give context for that pointer.
