------- Additional Comments from Eric Seidel <eric at webkit.org>
I think this needs a comment in the code indicating that this is not the
preferred method.  That platforms should provide instead an allocator which
provides lazy commit.

I'm assuming for the moment that there are no alignment requirements.  If there
are, this patch is invalid for other reasons.

Please track down othermaciej or ggaren over irc for the alignment
requirements.  I'm ready to r+ a change with an added comment about how
fastMalloc does not lazy commit and that platforms should instead provide a
better allocator.
