[PATCH] malloc: Add missing locks for some paths (valloc/memalign/posix_memalign)

The internal heap structures were not protected properly in
memalign(). If multiple threads were concurrently allocating memory and
one of them were requesting aligned memory via valloc,memalign or
posix_memalign the internal heap data structures could be corrupted.
