We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters
on all io paths. Prepare bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes() now.

Widens from 32- to 64-bit. Callers (I'm looking at pre-series code, the further I get into your series, the more likely that intermediate changes may alter the analysis...):

bdrv_co_do_copy_on_readv() - passes 'int64_t pnum' bounded by fragmenting loop limited to MAX_BOUNCE_BUFFER bdrv_aligned_pwritev() - passes 'unsigned int bytes' - latent bug fix for sizes between 2G and 4G, if any

to see if that bug could be tickled, look at callers of bdrv_aligned_pwritev:

bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev() - splits 'unsigned int bytes' into head|body|tail; head and tail are safe but body could be > 2G
bdrv_co_pwritev_part() - gates with bdrv_check_byte_request()

continuing the audit, callers of bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev:

bdrv_co_pwritev_part() - gates with bdrv_check_byte_request()

okay, all callers pass < 2G per our current code in bdrv_check_byte_request(), so there is no actual bug. Still, the latent fix would be nice to mention in the commit message.

Use of 'bytes' within the function:

compute 'int tail' via % 'int alignment' - safe
fragmentation loop 'int num' - still fragments with a cap on max_transfer

use of 'num' within the loop
compute 'int head' via % 'int alignment' - safe
clamp size by 'int max_write_zeroes' - safe
drv->bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes(int) - safe because of clamping
clamp size by 'int max_transfer' - safe
qemu_iovec_init_buf(size_t) - safe because of clamping
bdrv_driver_pwritev(uint64_t) [well, int64_t after 4/17] - safe

So even with the wider type, we aren't exceeding the contract of anything we pass it on to. Later patches may improve drv->bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes and qemu_iovec_init_buf to be 64-bit clean, at which point we would want to revisit this function to use 64-bit clamping rather than 32-bit clamping, but it does not have to happen here.
