commit f6d3985879b45a2cb05279bfa7ebaba0779a56bb
Author: Marc Jones <marc.jones at se-eng.com>

    Fix libpayload alloc function.
    
    The previous commit was incomplete and missed setting the complete
    of the alloc area.
    
    There are also additional problems with gcc optimizations of the
    pointer math. The "auto" casting by gcc wouldn't return warnings,
    but it was causing the optimization to be incorrect. We are now
    very explicit in the casting in the pointer math.
