[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 24/25] chardev: Let qemu_chr_fe_write[_all] use size_t type argument

["Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <philmd@redhat.com>]

All caller have been audited and call these functions with
unsigned arguments.

Most of them use a size_t argument, or directly pass sizeof().

One case is unclear: the mux_chr_write() call in chardev/char-mux.c.
There we add an assert (which will be removed in few patches) and
cast the parameter as size_t to make explicit this value is unsigned.
