g_new(T, n) is neater than g_malloc(sizeof(T) * n). It's also safer,
for two reasons. One, it catches multiplication overflowing size_t.
Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch
more type errors.
Patch created with Coccinelle, with two manual changes on top:
* Add const to bdrv_iterate_format() to keep the types straight
* Convert the allocation in bdrv_drop_intermediate(), which Coccinelle
inexplicably misses
