ef4f97648d malloc: Simplify static malloc interposition [BZ #20432]
Existing interposed mallocs do not define the glibc-internal
fork callbacks (and they should not), so statically interposed
mallocs lead to link failures because the strong reference from
fork pulls in glibc's malloc, resulting in multiple definitions
of malloc-related symbols.

fc86a87d78 nptl/tst-tls3-malloc: Force freeing of thread stacks
It turns out that due to the reduced stack size in tst-tls3 and the
(fixed) default stack cache size, allocated TLS variables are never
freed, so the test coverage for tst-tls3-malloc is less than complete.
This change increases the thread stack size for tst-tls3-malloc only,
to make sure thread stacks and TLS variables are freed.

6c444ad6e9 elf: Do not use memalign for TCB/TLS blocks allocation [BZ #17730]
Instead, call malloc and explicitly align the pointer.

There is no external location to store the original (unaligned)
pointer, and this commit increases the allocation size to store
the pointer at a fixed location relative to the TCB pointer.

The manual alignment means that some space goes unused which
was previously made available for subsequent allocations.
However, in the TLS_DTV_AT_TP case, the manual alignment code
avoids aligning the pre-TCB to the TLS block alignment.  (Even
while using memalign, the allocation had some unused padding
in front.)

This concludes the removal of memalign calls from the TLS code,
and the new tst-tls3-malloc test verifies that only core malloc
routines are used.
