There is a slim chance that free_heap_pages() may decide to merge a chunk
from the static region(PGC_reserved) with the about-to-be-free chunk.

So in order to avoid the above scenario, this commit updates free_heap_pages()
to check whether the predecessor and/or successor has PGC_reserved set,
when trying to merge the about-to-be-freed chunk with the predecessor
and/or successor.
