Revert "prevent crash when executing guest-file-read with large count"
As noted by Daniel Berrangé in [*], the fix from commit 807e2b6fce
which replaced malloc() by try_malloc() is not enough, the process
can still run out of memory a few line later:
346 buf = g_try_malloc0(count + 1);
347 if (!buf) {
348 error_setg(errp,
349 "failed to allocate sufficient memory "
350 "to complete the requested service");
351 return NULL;
352 }
353 is_ok = ReadFile(fh, buf, count, &read_count, NULL);
354 if (!is_ok) {
355 error_setg_win32(errp, GetLastError(), "failed to read file");
356 slog("guest-file-read failed, handle %" PRId64, handle);
357 } else {
358 buf[read_count] = 0;
359 read_data = g_new0(GuestFileRead, 1);
^^^^^^
Instead we are going to put a low hard limit on 'count' in the next
commits. This reverts commit 807e2b6fce022707418bc8f61c069d91c613b3d2.
