Oops, there's a conversion bug here: len is size_t, and ret is
ssize_t.  Both need to be the same type.

Since we're not returning negative, ret should be changed to size_t.
The function signature changes too, but that's alright.

Erm changing ret to a size_t will break things, since qemu_chr_fe_write can
return < 0 and storing that into an unsigned will change it into a very
large value instead ...

A better fix would be to change len to ssize_t. Although that will cause
issues if we ever get a single buf which is larger then 2^31 - 1. Note
we already have that problem since qemu_chr_fe_write already cannot handle
such large buffers...

And there need to be braces here.

Ack.
