The upstream patch is backported by excluding tests for reallocarray because
this function is not present in RHEL-7.

Fix integer overflows in internal memalign and malloc functions [BZ #22343]
When posix_memalign is called with an alignment less than MALLOC_ALIGNMENT
and a requested size close to SIZE_MAX, it falls back to malloc code
(because the alignment of a block returned by malloc is sufficient to
satisfy the call). In this case, an integer overflow in _int_malloc leads
to posix_memalign incorrectly returning successfully.
Upon fixing this and writing a somewhat thorough regression test, it was
discovered that when posix_memalign is called with an alignment larger than
MALLOC_ALIGNMENT (so it uses _int_memalign instead) and a requested size
close to SIZE_MAX, a different integer overflow in _int_memalign leads to
posix_memalign incorrectly returning successfully.
Both integer overflows affect other memory allocation functions that use
_int_malloc (one affected malloc in x86) or _int_memalign as well.
This commit fixes both integer overflows. In addition to this, it adds a
regression test to guard against false successful allocations by the
following memory allocation functions when called with too-large allocation
sizes and, where relevant, various valid alignments:
malloc, realloc, calloc, reallocarray, memalign, posix_memalign,
aligned_alloc, valloc, and pvalloc.

+ free'ing a small block of memory, malloc is then called with a really
+ large size argument (close to SIZE_MAX): instead of returning NULL and

+ allocated block instead. Bug 22343 reported a similar case where
+ posix_memalign incorrectly returns successfully when called with an with
+ a really large size argument.
+
+ Both of these were caused by integer overflows in the allocator when it
+ was trying to pad the requested size to allow for book-keeping or
+ alignment. This test guards against such bugs by repeatedly allocating
+ and freeing small blocks of memory then trying to allocate various block
+ sizes larger than the memory bus width of 64-bit targets, or almost
+ as large as SIZE_MAX on 32-bit targets supported by glibc. In each case,
+ it verifies that such impossibly large allocations correctly fail. */
