There's a very high memory usage when calling _pv_analyse_mda_raw (e.g. while executing pvck) that can end up with "out of memory". _pv_analyse_mda_raw scans for metadata in the MDA, iteratively increasing the size to scan with SECTOR_SIZE until we find a probable config section or we're at the edge of the metadata area. However, when using a memory pool, we're also iteratively chasing for bigger and bigger mempool chunk which can't be found and so we're always allocating a new one, consuming more and more memory... This patch just changes the mempool to direct memory allocation in this problematic part of the code.
