test failure in jemalloc on ppc64el

[kilobyte]

While vmem is supposed to work on all 64-bit architectures, it currently builds successfully only on x86-64 and arm64. There's no reason to care about those that lack relevant hardware — thus ppc64el is the only arch that might be worth porting to.

The fail is in jemalloc rather than vmem proper:

=== ../debug/libvmmalloc/jemalloc/test/unit/pool_custom_alloc ===
test_pool_check_memory:/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src/jemalloc/test/unit/pool.h:246: Failed assertion: (allocs[0]) != (NULL) --> 0x0 == 0x0: pool_malloc should return valid ptr

This is not a regression, as PMDK did not work on ppc before vmem got split out.

@lucmaga: it's up to you and possibly other IBM folks. Vmem, a former part of PMDK (and still there as of the most recent stable release) is mature finished code, with new developments going into memkind, thus I'm not sure if you'd want to do the effort to port it.

Thus: if you don't care, please close this issue.
