[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2][Outreachy Round 12]

[Sarah Khan]

Replaced g_malloc() with g_new() as it would detect multiplication overflow if 
nb_fields ever oversize.

There is no corresponding free(). thunk_register_struct() is called
only at startup from the linux-user code in order to populate the
struct_entries array; this data structure then remains live for
the entire lifetime of the program and is automatically freed when
QEMU exits.

This replacement was suggested as part of the bite-sized tasks.
