If the guest passes us a bogus negative length for an iovec, fail
EINVAL rather than proceeding blindly forward. This fixes some of
the error cases tests for readv and writev in the LTP.

I guess I'll resend this mixed bag of linux-user patches as a single
series after the trunk reopens; feel free to review in the meantime :-)
