What about

    MigrationCapabilityStatusList *head = NULL;
    MigrationCapabilityStatusList **p_tail = &head;
    MigrationState *s = migrate_get_current();
    int i;

    for (i = 0; i < MIGRATION_CAPABILITY_MAX; i++) {
        MigrationCapabilityStatusList *caps = g_malloc0(sizeof(*caps));
        caps->value =
            ...
        *p_next = caps;
        p_next = &caps->next;
    }
