host 1024G (1 TiB)
4) size of /dev/nvme0n1 size in VM looks too big, like an integer
overflow

testing this out on Ubuntu Noble (24.04) which has qemu 8.2 does not show this
issue.
It would be nice to get a backport of whatever fix went into 8.2 into
6.2
Here's a simple reproducer:
1) qemu-img create -f raw nvme.img 1024G
2) wget
https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/minimal/daily/plucky/current/plucky-minimal-cloudimg-amd64.img
3) qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F qcow2 -b plucky-minimal-cloudimg-amd64.img
plucky.img 20G
4) cat > user-data <<EOF
#cloud-config
password: passw0rd
chpasswd: { expire: False }
ssh_pwauth: True
EOF
5) cat > meta-data <<EOF
instance-id: 2b8a0076-bdf6-4ddb-a941-d4ebd652ce54
EOF
6) cloud-localds plucky-nvme-cidata.iso user-data meta-data
7) qemu-system-x86_64 -name plucky-nvme -smp 2 -m 2048 --enable-kvm -drive

-net nic,model=virtio -nographic -object

8) login as ubuntu
9) cat /proc/partitions
For any size of NVME disk <1TiB (even 1K less) the size is reported
correctly. Switching to ide, scsi or virtio device also fixes the disk
size reporting in guest.
