Re: [PATCH] malloc: Fix missing accounting of top chunk in malloc_info [BZ #24026]

Thanks everyone for helping with this!

As a next thing, we probably want to update the example in
`man malloc_info`, which has been showing

    <total type="rest" count="0" size="0"/>

ever since (which was also what surprised me that nobody had found it before),
given that it should be extremely unlikely that rest is 0.
