09d98a241caf12e0de5ab738cfa5c911af97fbd6 hw/ppc/spapr_pci: Replace g_memdup() by g_memdup2()
Per https://discourse.gnome.org/t/port-your-module-from-g-memdup-to-g-memdup2-now/5538
The old API took the size of the memory to duplicate as a guint,
whereas most memory functions take memory sizes as a gsize. This
made it easy to accidentally pass a gsize to g_memdup(). For large
values, that would lead to a silent truncation of the size from 64
to 32 bits, and result in a heap area being returned which is
significantly smaller than what the caller expects. This can likely
be exploited in various modules to cause a heap buffer overflow.
Replace g_memdup() by the safer g_memdup2() wrapper.
Trivially safe because the argument was directly from sizeof.
