[ Upstream commit d0259a856a ]
In p9_client_write() and p9_client_read_once(), if the server
incorrectly replies with success but a negative write/read count then we
would consider written (negative) <= rsize (positive) because both
variables were signed.
Make variables unsigned to avoid this problem.
The reproducer linked below now fails with the following error instead
of a null pointer deref:
9pnet: bogus RWRITE count (4294967295 > 3)
