#1335300 — [PATCH] qxl: apply limit to relocs_num in qxl_process_single_command

Limit relocs_num to 65536.  That limit is small enougth to avoid integer
overflow on 32bit machines when calculating reloc_info size (as reported
by Alan Cox), and is big enougth to not block normal usage (kmalloc
would ENOMEM on requests larger than that anyway).

Why not just use one of the array alloc functions like kcalloc?
