[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 7/8] linux-user: Use glib malloc functions in load_symbols()

[Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>]

Switch to using the glib malloc functions in load_symbols();
this deals with a Coverity complaint about possible
integer overflow calculating the allocation size with
'nsyms * sizeof(*syms)'.

Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>

I opted to use the _try_ versions rather than switching
to the abort-on-failure allocation functions because
(a) the handle-failure code is already in place and correct
(b) loading symbols from the ELF file is debug-only and
can safely be skipped
