[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 4/4] 9pfs: handle transport errors in pdu_complete()

[Greg Kurz]

Contrary to what is written in the comment, a buggy guest can misconfigure
the transport buffers and pdu_marshal() may return an error.  If this ever
happens, it is up to the transport layer to handle the situation (9P is
transport agnostic).

This fixes Coverity issue CID1348518.
