When enabling some malloc debug features on Android, multiple 32 bit
regions become exhausted, and the allocations fail. Allow allocations
to keep trying each bigger class in the Primary until it finds a fit.
In addition, some Android tests running on 32 bit fail sometimes due
to a running out of space in two regions, and then fail the allocation.

One of the things with this behavior is that it could have security repercussions, in the sense that we can lose the property of the separation per class size.
eg: by filling in all the previous class sizes, one could end up in another, allowing to properly exploit a UAF or overflow.
This is probably more theoretical than practical, but something to keep in mind for the future.
Hi, you can drop Reviewers: Subscribers: Tags: and the text Summary: from the git commit with the following script:
arcfilter () { arc amend git log -1 --pretty=%B | awk '/Reviewers:|Subscribers:/{p=1} /Reviewed By:|Differential Revision:/{p=0} !p && !/^Summary:$/ {sub(/^Summary: /,"");print}' | git commit --amend --date=now -F - }
Reviewed By: is considered important by some people. Please keep the tag. (I have updated my script to use --date=now (setting author date to committer date))
https://reviews.llvm.org/D80978 contains a git pre-push hook to automate this.
I did the commit and followed the instructions @ https://llvm.org/docs/Phabricator.html#committing-someone-s-change-from-phabricator.
Let me know if they are no longer relevant.
