Improve malloc initialization sequence
The current malloc initialization is quite convoluted. Instead of sometimes calling malloc_consolidate from ptmalloc_init, call malloc_init_state early so that the main_arena is always initialized. The special initialization can now be removed from malloc_consolidate. This also fixes BZ #22159. Check all calls to malloc_consolidate and remove calls that are redundant initialization after ptmalloc_init, like in int_mallinfo and __libc_mallopt (but keep the latter as consolidation is required for set_max_fast). Update comments to improve clarity. Remove impossible initialization check from _int_malloc, fix assert in do_check_malloc_state to ensure arena->top != 0. Fix the obvious bugs in do_check_free_chunk and do_check_remalloced_chunk to enable single threaded malloc debugging (do_check_malloc_state is not thread safe!). [BZ #22159] * malloc/arena.c (ptmalloc_init): Call malloc_init_state. * malloc/malloc.c (do_check_free_chunk): Fix build bug. (do_check_remalloced_chunk): Fix build bug. (do_check_malloc_state): Add assert that checks arena->top. (malloc_consolidate): Remove initialization. (int_mallinfo): Remove call to malloc_consolidate. (__libc_mallopt): Clarify why malloc_consolidate is needed.
