The virtio code uses int, unsigned int, and uint16_t for virtqueue indices. The uint16_t is used for the low-level descriptor layout in virtio_ring.h while code that isn't concerned with descriptor layout can use unsigned int. Use of int is problematic because it can result in signed/unsigned comparison and incompatible int*/unsigned int* pointer types. Make the virtqueue_get_avail_bytes() 'i' variable unsigned int. This eliminates the need to introduce casts and modify code further in the patches that follow.
