The ALLOCA(3) man-page mentions its "use is discouraged".

Replace it by a g_malloc() call.

It is a bit unfortunate to introduce a new dependency on the struct type.

What about the following ?

-    struct kvm_get_htab_header *buf;
+    g_autofree struct kvm_get_htab_header *buf = NULL;
     size_t chunksize = sizeof(*buf) + n_valid * HASH_PTE_SIZE_64;
     ssize_t rc;
 
-    buf = alloca(chunksize);
+    buf = g_malloc(chunksize);


    g_autofree struct kvm_get_htab_header *buf = NULL;
    size_t chunksize = sizeof(*buf) + n_valid * HASH_PTE_SIZE_64;
