posix: Fix generic p{read,write}v buffer allocation (BZ#22457)
As described in BZ#22457 an interpose malloc can free an invalid pointer for fallback preadv implementation. Fortunately this is just and issue on microblaze-linux-gnu running kernels older than 3.15. This patch fixes it by calling mmap/unmap instead of posix_memalign/ free. Checked on microblaze-linux-gnu check with run-built-tests=no and by using the sysdeps/posix implementation on x86_64-linux-gnu (just for sanity test where it shown no regression). [BZ #22457] * sysdeps/posix/preadv_common.c (PREADV): Use mmap/munmap instead of posix_memalign/free. * sysdeps/posix/pwritev_common.c (PWRITEV): Likewise.
