From: Felipe Franciosi <fel...@nutanix.com> On gcc 3.4 and newer, simply using (void) in front of WUR functions is not sufficient to ignore the return value. That prevents a build when handling warnings as errors.
libvhost-user had a usage of (void)vasprintf() which triggered such a condition. This fixes it by replacing this call with g_strdup_vprintf() which aborts on OOM.
