Would you prefer them to be unsigned? To me size_t fits better, but
VirtQueueElement uses unsigned anyway.

We can recover from it, but it's a failure of qemu code.
- In the case of loading the state to the destination device, we
already know the layout (it's always 1 out, 1 in).
- In the case of forwarding buffers, there is no way to get a
VirtQueueElement with 0 out and 0 in descriptors, due to the virtqueue
way of working.

Would you prefer to return success in this case?

Thanks!
