[PATCH] block/iscsi: Document why we use raw malloc()

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

In block/iscsi.c we use a raw malloc() call, which is unusual
given the project standard is to use the glib memory allocation
functions. Document why we do so, to avoid it being converted
to g_malloc() by mistake.

There aren't many uses of raw malloc() in the codebase
other than third-party library sourcecode. Mostly we have
a comment noting when we're doing it deliberately.
