In mas_alloc_nodes(), there is such a piece of code:

while (requested) {
	...
	node->node_count = 0;
	...
}

"node->node_count = 0" means to initialize the node_count field of the new
node, but the node may not be a new node.  It may be a node that existed
before and node_count has a value, setting it to 0 will cause a memory
leak.  At this time, mas->alloc->total will be greater than the actual
number of nodes in the linked list, which may cause many other errors. 
For example, out-of-bounds access in mas_pop_node(), and mas_pop_node()
may return addresses that should not be used.  Fix it by initializing
node_count only for new nodes.
