jmalloc in shared memory

[Alexander Tarasikov]

Hi Slawa,
I'm not sure jemalloc is supposed to be used this way, but you should
be able to achieve this functionality in two ways:
1. Editing jemalloc's allocator ("src/pages.c") to allocate in your
region instead of calling mmap()
2. Hook mmap() and brk(), sbrk() with LD_PRELOAD and provide
implementations that will allocate in the shared memory

Hope this helps.
