This should be in newlib's malloc.h to align with how it is done
on Linux. This is an RTEMS specific header file.  I went ahead
and posted the patch for this since it was small:

This should be _Protected_heap_Get_block_size() to ensure that
locking is performed.

Spaces around =

Inconsistent spaces around "*" between those two lines.

Should also be >= alloc_size and <= alloc_size + HEAP_ALIGNMENT.
Needs to be large enough to use.

Check this one.

If the test directory has a doc file explaining what it is testing,
then testing this new method needs to be added.

This is close. Mostly minor except for the malloc.h patch. For you
locally, just manually edit the installed malloc.h file to have the
prototype.
