[Qemu-devel] [PULL 2/3] vnc: fix crash when vnc_server_info_get has an error

[Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>]

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@redhat.com>

The vnc_server_info_get will allocate the VncServerInfo
struct and then call vnc_init_basic_info_from_server_addr
to populate the basic fields. If this returns an error
though, the qapi_free_VncServerInfo call will then crash
because the VncServerInfo struct instance was not properly
NULL-initialized and thus contains random stack garbage.

    vnc: Hoist allocation of VncBasicInfo to callers

which added error reporting for vnc_init_basic_info_from_server_addr
but didn't change the g_malloc calls to g_malloc0.
