Could not exactly replicate the problem upgrading a different CentOS 7.2 guest from 5.0.16 guest additions to 5.0.217. Instead of hanging at a blank screen the guest boots up in reduced resolution and there is no mouse pointer visible. Mouse does work "blind" but is difficult to control. Will send the logs separately directly to you. Please let me know if you need anything else.
