[PATCH] [BZ #22830] malloc_stats: restore cancellation for stderr correctly.


malloc_stats means to disable cancellation for writes to stderr while
it runs, but it restores stderr->_flags2 with |= instead of =, so what
it actually does is disable cancellation on stderr permanently.

I'm going to go ahead and commit this as an obvious bugfix, but I
would welcome feedback on the test case, which is rather complicated
and could probably be made more robust (for instance, setting stderr to
line-buffered breaks the test and I don't understand why).

Perhaps _IO_lock_acquire_clear_flags2 should be extended to handle
_IO_FLAGS2_NOTCANCEL as well as what it already does, but that would
_not_ be an obvious bugfix. :-)

	[BZ #22830]
	* malloc/malloc.c (__malloc_stats): Restore stderr->_flags2
        correctly.
        * malloc/tst-malloc-stats-cancellation.c: New test case.
        * malloc/Makefile: Add new test case.
