req is of type size_t, casting it to long opens the door
for an integer overflow.
Values between LONG_MAX - (SIZE_SZ + MALLOC_ALIGN_MASK) - 1 and LONG_MAX
cause and overflow such that request2size() returns MINSIZE.
Fix by removing the cast.
The origin of the cast is unclear, it's in u-boot and ppcboot since ever
and predates the CVS history.
Doug Lea's original dlmalloc implementation also doesn't have it.
