This multiplication is (theoretically) subject to overflow. To eliminate
this risk, this should use

    g_new0(mcd_server_info_st, num_servers)

which will validate overflow & abort if hit.

There are many more instances of this code pattern in the series

$ git diff -r master | grep g_malloc | grep ' \* '
+        .tx = g_malloc(txlist->num_tx * sizeof(mcd_tx_st)),
+        server_info = g_malloc0(num_servers * sizeof(*server_info));
+        system_con_info = g_malloc0(num_systems * sizeof(*system_con_info));
+        device_con_info = g_malloc0(num_devices * sizeof(*device_con_info));
+        core_con_info = g_malloc0(num_cores * sizeof(*core_con_info));
+        memspaces = g_malloc0(num_mem_spaces * sizeof(*memspaces));
+        reg_groups = g_malloc0(num_reg_groups * sizeof(*reg_groups));
+        regs = g_malloc0(num_regs * sizeof(*regs));
+        ctrig_info = g_malloc0(num_ctrigs * sizeof(*ctrig_info));
+        trig_ids = g_malloc0(num_trigs * sizeof(*trig_ids));


QEMU is a bit inconsistent, but we have a slight bias in favour
of using g_new0, even for single struct allocations.

IMHO being in the habit of always using g_new0 instead of g_malloc
makes it less likely for people to inadvertantly introduce the
multiplication overflow code pattern with g_malloc.
