Several functions in virtio-9p-xattr.c are passing the return value of the
associated host system call back to the client instead of errno.
Since this value is -1 for any error (which, when received in the guest app as
errno, indicates "operation not permitted") it is causing guest applications to
fail in cases where the operation is not supported by the host.
This causes a number of problems with dpkg and with install.
This patch fixes the bug and returns the correct value, which means that guest
applications are able to handle the error correctly.
