Do we ever plan on using this for values other than '-1'?

Could also be spelled:

memset(ptr, -1, sizeof(*ptr) * count))

which goes back to why we need vir_init_n_int().

I agree that the fix to qemu_hotplug.c to not close fd 0 on failure is
needed, but am not sure about the complexity of the virfile.h addition.
