[PATCH] _dl_map_object_deps: Use struct scratch_buffer [BZ #18023]


The function comment suggests that _dl_map_object_deps cannot use
malloc, but it already allocates the l_initfini array on the heap, so
the additional allocation should be acceptable.

2018-06-26  Florian Weimer  <fweimer@redhat.com>

	[BZ #18023]
	* elf/dl-deps.c (_dl_map_object_deps): Use struct
	scratch_buffer instead of extend_alloca.
