Update redis to 3.2.8
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Per the release notes [1], this is a CRITICAL.

Redis 3.2.8     Released Sun Feb 12 16:11:18 CET 2017


Upgrade urgency CRITICAL: This release reverts back the Jemalloc upgrade
                          that is believed to potentially cause a server
                          deadlock. A MIGRATE crash is also fixed.

Two important bug fixes, the first of one is critical:

1. Apparently Jemalloc 4.4.0 may contain a deadlock under particular
   conditions. See https://github.com/antirez/redis/issues/3799.
   We reverted back to the previously used Jemalloc versions and plan
   to upgrade Jemalloc again after having more info about the
   cause of the bug.

2. MIGRATE could crash the server after a socket error. See for reference:
   https://github.com/antirez/redis/issues/3796.
