[Qemu-devel] [PULL 01/11] vfio: fix return type of pread

[Alex Williamson]

From: Paolo Bonzini <address@hidden>

size_t is an unsigned type, thus the error case is never reached in
the below call to pread.  If bytes is negative, it will be seen as
a very high positive value.

Spotted by Coverity.
