[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/1] loader: g_realloc(p, 0) frees and returns NULL, simplify

[Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>]

Once upon a time, it was decided that qemu_realloc(ptr, 0) should
abort.  Switching to glib retired that bright idea.  A bit of code
that was added to cope with it (commit 3e372cf) is still around.  Bury
it.

See also commit 6528499.
