You might as well use g_new(), which handles the sizeof and multiplication, and error 
reporting.

It will also assert if the alloc fails. If this is an allocation QEMU
can recover from then you need to use the try_new variants of the
g_malloc/new functions. However here we are exiting so no actual check
is needed as the g_malloc will exit for us.
