API conversion
- Look for uses of malloc, and convert them to either g_malloc, g_new (more rarely g_try_malloc or g_try_new if a lot of memory is being allocated). Likewise, convert calloc to either g_new0 or g_try_new0. Drop return value checks unless using g_try_new/g_try_new0.
- Add checks for NULL return value to uses of load_image_targphys, qemu_find_file.
- Add checks for negative return value to uses of get_image_size.
- Associate external libraries with the object files that actually use them
Testing & tools
- tests/qemu-iotests/*.out can have trailing spaces; make checkpatch.pl not complain about that
