Log:
  malloc_aligned() may not leave enough space for pointer to allocated memory,
  saving the pointer will overwrite bytes belongs to another memory block
  unexpectly, to fix the problem, use (allocated address + sizeof(void *)) as
  initial value, and slip to next aligned address, so maximum extra bytes is
  sizeof(void *) + align - 1.
