Subject: [PATCH] tools headers arm64: Fix compilation failure

When build perf tool on x86_64, it reports failure for finding the
header <asm/sysreg.h>:

In file included from util/arm-spe.c:37:
util/../../arch/arm64/include/asm/cputype.h:183:10: fatal error: asm/sysreg.h: No such file or directory
183 | #include <asm/sysreg.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

There have no sysreg.h in x86's asm folder, alternatively, this patch
includes the sysreg.h header in the same folder with cputype.h to fix
the compilation failure.

Fixes: 37402d5d061b ("tools headers arm64: Sync arm64's cputype.h with the kernel sources")

Please could you mention the exact build options used for the perf
build ? (e.g, enable SPE)

Wondering how the "cputype.h" was picked up from arch/arm64/include/ and
why not the sysreg.h ? Ideally, we would like to pickup the kernel
headers as it is without having to manually fixup, things like this.

Also from the above commit,

"That addresses this perf build warning:

Warning: Kernel ABI header at
'tools/arch/arm64/include/asm/cputype.h' differs from latest version at
'arch/arm64/include/asm/cputype.h'
diff -u tools/arch/arm64/include/asm/cputype.h
arch/arm64/include/asm/cputype.h
"

Wouldn't we re-introduce the warning back ?

Sure, yeah, I encoutered the building failure after I applied the
patch set; the first patch is to change Arm SPE code in perf.

Actually cputype.h and sysreg.h both are copied from arch/arm64/include/
and they are placed under tools/arch/arm64/include/asm/.

Good point! Thanks for pointing out this. So I think another option
is to tweak the CFLGAS for arm-spe.c. The change is as below.

I will send patch out a bit later in today, please let me know if this
is fine for you? Thanks!
