* This is a macro. If you need a function pointer to release memory from
* tor_malloc(), use tor_free_().
*
* Note that this macro takes the address of the pointer it is going to
* free and clear. If that pointer is stored with a nonstandard
* alignment (eg because of a "packed" pragma) it is not correct to use
* tor_free().
