Let's look at this path:
malloc_elem_free
->malloc_elem_join_adjacent_free
->join_elem(elem, elem->next)
0. cur elem's pad > 0
1. data area memset in malloc_elem_free first.
2. next elem is free, try to join cur elem and next.
3. in join_elem, try to modify inner->size, this address had
memset in step 1, it casue the content of addrees become non-zero.
If user call rte_zmalloc, and pick this elem, it can't get all
zero'd memory.
Fixes: 2808a12cc053 (malloc: fix memory element size in case of padding)
