The error message changes from

    vhost-scsi: open vhost char device failed: REASON

to

    Could not open '/dev/vhost-scsi': REASON

I think the exact file name is more useful to know than the file's
purpose.

We could put back the "vhost-scsi: " prefix with error_prepend().  Not
worth the bother.
