If you configure with the (default) simple trace
backend then trace.h will pull in qemu/log.h
(and in this case trace.h comes in via xen_common.h).
But if you're using a different backend then it won't
bring in that header, and you'll get the build failure.

This is a fairly common "breaks but only with
some trace backends" compile failure, but I'm
not sure how best to try to make it more robust
(or at least into a 'fails-everywhere' bug).
