Returning int...

...but len is an ssize_t.  If we send an iov with 2 gigabytes of data,
this can wrap around to a negative int even though we send a positive
amount of data.  Why not make the callback be typed to return ssize_t
from the beginning (affects patch 1/8)?

At the moment it is not an issue but for the future we need to switch to ssize_t 
instead on int, I will change it.
We actually need to replace it all around the migration code but this should
be done in a different patch series.

I agree that the existing code base is in horrible shape with regards to
int instead of ssize_t, and that it will take a different patch series
to clean that up.  But why make that future patch harder?  New
interfaces might as well be designed correctly, to limit the cleanup to
the old interfaces, instead of making the cleanup job even harder.

I agree completely! new interface should be designed correctly.
