[Sergey Kaplun]

Hi, Sergey!
Thanks for the fixes!
LGTM, with a few small nits below.

Typo: s/default/default,/

Typo: s/to set/setting/
Typo: s/profiling/the profiling/

Minor: Do we want to check that the profiler starts successfully?
I suppose we should, since this is the expected behaviour for this
feature. In case the profiler is not started (old behaviour) we would
get an error from the branch below: profiler not running. This isn't a
verbose definition of what goes wrong.
I suppose we may use `goto` here like the following:

|   local res, err = misc.memprof.start()
|   -- Should start successfully.
|   if not res then
|     goto err_handling
|   end
|
|   res, err = misc.memprof.stop()
|
| ::err_handling::
|   -- Want to cleanup carefully if something went wrong.
|   if not res then
