Looks good, I really like this change.

One nit, I would like the comment where we can't use clamp in 
threadLocalAllocBuffer.cpp to be a bit more specific saying that we will 
assert if using it. Now I could not figure out what would be different 
without looking at the impl of clamp.

No need for an extra review though, push at will.

Thanks,
Stefan
