Revert "This patch prevent heap corruption as in below case."

This solution to the problem noted by EunBong Song results in major memory fragmentation and and out-of-memory conditions on the PX4 platform.  On that platform the lower priority work queue is very low priority and essentially never runs when the system is busy.  As a result, the systems gets slowly starved of memory until failures and bad behaviors begin to occur.

This is an addition patch coming later to result the original problem in a different way that does not have cause memory starvation.

This reverts commit 91aa26774b.
