The unspoken premise of qemu_madvise() is that errno is set on error. And it is mostly the case except for posix_madvise() which is documented to return either zero (on success) or a positive error number. This means, we must set errno ourselves. And while at it, make the function return a negative value on error, just like other error paths do.
