Re: Remove __malloc_ptr_t

This patch removes the macro __malloc_ptr_t from malloc.h, replacing
its uses by void *, since it no longer provides a useful abstraction
(and using a macro here is especially confusing, because it looks like
a typedef name but "const __malloc_ptr_t" means "const void *", not
"void *const" as it would with a typedef). Tested x86_64.
Looks fine, thanks,
Andreas
