malloc: Fix attached thread reference count handling [BZ #19243]
reused_arena can increase the attached thread count of arenas on the free list. This means that the assertion that the reference count is zero is incorrect. In this case, the reference count initialization is incorrect as well and could cause arenas to be put on the free list too early (while they still have attached threads). * malloc/arena.c (get_free_list): Remove assert and adjust reference count handling. Add comment about reused_arena interaction. (reused_arena): Add comments abount get_free_list interaction. * malloc/tst-malloc-thread-exit.c: New file. * malloc/Makefile (tests): Add tst-malloc-thread-exit. (tst-malloc-thread-exit): Link against libpthread.
