I would treat those two independent.  The case for GSMTAP is simply to
have a synchronous / monotonic log (pcap in this case) that combines
both actual packets on Gb and Um, as well as the human-readable log
messages generated by the PCU code in between.
As for the human-readable PCU log messages, I would suggest something
like pre-fixing all of them with the TLLI in the beginning like
[1a2b3d4e] at the start of every line.  I would guess that for most of
the log messages, the TLLI to which they relate should be known.  The
same is not the case for other identifiers like the IMSI.
