/* The point of this test is to start and exit a large number of
   threads, while at the same time looking to see if the used
   memory grows with each round of threads run.  If the memory
   grows above some linear bound we declare the test failed and
   that the malloc implementation is leaking memory with each
   thread.  This is a good indicator that the thread local cache
   is leaking chunks.  */

     bytes and force malloc to fill the tcache.  We are assuming tcache
     init happens at the first small alloc, but it might in the future
     be deferred to some other point.  Therefore to future proof this
     test we include a full alloc/free/alloc cycle for the thread.  We
     need a compiler barrier to avoid the removal of the useless
     alloc/free.  We send some memory back to main to have the memory
     freed after the thread dies, as just another check that the chunks
     that were previously in the tcache are still OK to free after

     per thread we'd have THREADS bytes of additional memory, and in
     general the in-use at the start of main is quite low.  We will
     always leak a full malloc chunk, and never just 1-byte, therefore
     anything above "+ threads" from the start (constant offset) is a
     leak.  Obviously this assumes no thread-related malloc'd internal
