As vfio-ccw devices are created/destroyed, the uuid of the associated
mdevs that are recorded in $S390DBF/vfio_ccw_msg/sprintf get lost.
This is because a pointer to the UUID is stored instead of the UUID
itself, and that memory may have been repurposed if/when the logs are
examined. The result is usually garbage UUID data in the logs, though
there is an outside chance of an oops happening here.
Simply remove the UUID from the traces, as the subchannel number will
provide useful configuration information for problem determination,
and is stored directly into the log instead of a pointer.
As we were the only consumer of mdev_uuid(), remove that too.
