ARM TL1 memory error: "double free or corruption (!prev)" and "free(): invalid next size (normal)"

[xxxxyu]

I encountered this on Orange Pi 5 Plus (RK3588) with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. The compilation environments (in a Conda env) are:

• Python 3.9.21
• CMake 3.31.2
• Clang 18.1.8

The compilation went successfully, but both run_inference.py (llama-cli) and e2e_benchmark.py (llama-bench) exited with some memory errors. Specifically in the benchmark case, there are still benchmark outputs, but I'm not sure will this affect the measured performance.

Note that there are different errors when benchmarking prefilling (p>0, n=0) and decoding (p=0, n>0).

• "double free or corruption (!prev)" in prefilling
• "free(): invalid next size (normal)" in decoding

Here are the corresponding commands and outputs:

This should be a similar issue to #143, but I'm not quite sure.

@xxxxyu , I implemented the solution of this problem.(#164)
