Since reserving memory regions may go thru a try and fail sequence of reserve-release pairs, changing the `_flag` member at failed releases would lead to incorrect flags in subsequent reserves.

>>   2- In order to have adjacent regions with different flags, CDS reserves a (large) region `R` and then splits it into sub regions `R1` and `R2` (`R == <---R1---><--R2-->`). At release time, NMT tracks only `R` and ignores releasing `R1` and `R2`. This ignoring is problematic when a requested region `R` is size-aligned to `R1---R---R2` first and then the `R1` and `R2` are released (`chop_extra_memory` function is called for this). In this case, NMT ignores tracking `R1` and `R2` with false assumption that a containing `R` will be released. Therefore, `R1` and `R2` remain in the NMT reserved-regions-list and when a new reserve happens at that regions, NMT complains by raising an exception.
