Hi,

I don't know where the best place to catch this would be, but
with vnc and vmware_vga it's possible to get set_bit called on
a negative index, crashing qemu.  See

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/918791

for details.  This patch prevents that.  It's possible this
should be caught earlier, but this patch works for me.
