Use of the malloc/free/realloc/calloc/valloc/memalign/posix_memalign
APIs is not allowed in the QEMU codebase. Instead of these routines,
use the replacement qemu_malloc/qemu_mallocz/qemu_realloc/qemu_free or
use the replacement g_malloc/g_malloc0/g_realloc/g_free or
qemu_vmalloc/qemu_memalign/qemu_vfree APIs.
Please note that NULL check for the qemu_malloc result is redundant and

Memory allocated by qemu_vmalloc or qemu_memalign must be freed with
qemu_vfree, since breaking this will cause problems on Win32 and user
