I've started looking at the changes, and normally, when possible, I like
to cherry pick from the upstream changes (say from emacs-25), and it
looked like this commit might cover the the gmalloc patch (after
resolving a minor merge conflict):

  commit 4b1436b702d56eedd27a0777fc7232cdfb7ac4f6
  Author: Wolfgang Jenkner <wjenk...@inode.at>

      Always define gmalloc etc. in src/gmalloc.c

      This is a work-around to prevent the compiler from using semantic
      knowledge about malloc for optimization purposes.  E.g., gcc 5.2
      with -O2 replaces most of calloc's definition by a call to calloc;
      see Bug#22085.
      * src/gmalloc.c [!HYBRID_MALLOC] (malloc, realloc, calloc)
      (aligned_alloc, free): Do not undef.  Instead, define these as
      functions (perhaps renamed to gmalloc etc.) in terms of gmalloc etc.

But I didn't find anything as directly relevant for the glibc patch.
Perhaps there's nothing very close upstream (with respect to emacs-24),
i.e. maybe the patch you've attached is more appropriate there?

Thanks
