Thanks for your efforts, and sorry to hear you had a frustrating
debugging experience (sounds like it).

Would be great to learn the details to understand how this function is
going to improve the situation:

1. How come the hex error code was useless, what is not matching
    anything in the Linux headers?
2. How having "Unknown" in the log can possibly be better?
3. Given that the select hv status codes and the proposed strings have
    1:1 correspondence, and there is the 1:N catch-all case for the
    "Unknown", how's that better?
