In the linear allocator, when a size larger than the minimum
buffer size is allocated, we currently create the new buffer
to fit exactly the requested size.
In that case, don't bother updating the `latest` pointer, since
this newly created buffer is already full. In the worst case,
the current `latest` is full and it would be the same; in the
best case, there's still room for small allocations, so we avoid
wasting space if the next allocations would fit.
