Some emulated audio devices allow guests to select very low
sample rates that the audio subsystem doesn't support. The lowest
supported sample rate depends on the audio backend used and in
most cases can be changed with various -audiodev arguments. Until
now, the audio_bug function emits an error message similar to the
following error message

A bug was just triggered in audio_calloc
Save all your work and restart without audio
I am sorry
Context:
audio_pcm_sw_alloc_resources_out passed invalid arguments to
 audio_calloc
nmemb=0 size=16 (len=0)
audio: Could not allocate buffer for `ac97.po' (0 samples)

and the audio subsystem continues without sound for the affected
device.

The fact that the selected sample rate is not supported is not a
guest error. Instead of displaying an error message, the missing
audio support is now logged. Simply continuing without sound is
correct, since the audio stream won't transport anything
reasonable at such high resample ratios anyway.

The AUD_open_* functions return NULL like before. The opened
audio device will not be registered in the audio subsystem and
consequently the audio frontend callback functions will not be
called. The AUD_read and AUD_write functions return early in this
case. This is necessary because, for example, the Sound Blaster 16
emulation calls AUD_write from the DMA callback function.

You probably want to `sw->buf = NULL;` before returning here, or adjust the
condition for the error message below.

The other thing that puzzles me, in error case these template functions return
-1, which would then be feed to g_malloc*()?

sw->buf is always NULL here. In the audio_pcm_create_voice_pair_*() 
functions we have sw = audio_calloc(__func__, 1, sizeof(*sw)) (after 
patch 08/11 sw = g_new0(SW, 1)) and the audio_pcm_sw_free_resources_*() 
functions also set sw->buf = NULL after freeing sw->buf.

Sorry, I can't see where -1 would be fed to g_malloc*().

On error the audio_pcm_sw_alloc_resources_*() functions return error 
code -1, and that error code propagates up to the AUD_open_*() functions 
or the audio_pcm_create_voice_pair_*() functions which return NULL.

I thought about patch 7 where you do:

-    hw = audio_calloc(__func__, 1, glue(drv->voice_size_, TYPE));
+    hw = g_malloc0(glue(drv->voice_size_, TYPE));

But I just realized that it is using audio_pcm_hw_add_new_, which not returns
a negative value anywhere, so fine as well:
