redis: Try to fix cross-compilation
**Note**: This makes redis use libc malloc when cross-compiling to
ARM. This may or may not degrade performance.

The reason for this is vendored jemalloc with Redis' patches. The
makefile for deps has hardcoded configure flags for jemalloc, and as a
result, it is unable to cross-compile it.
