If you have a single patch (or few) relative to yesterday's tip tree,
please send it to me as well and I will apply it as a fix patch if Ingo
doesn't get to pulling in time.

I don't know exactly how linux-next works, would it be possible to merge in this branch
till it gets into tip/perf/core?

OK, I added this to linux-next today (as a temporary measure), but it
fails the same way.  To be clear, I merged the above branch (without
the rest of the tip tree) and it fails the same way. :-(

It produces these errors (from the x86_64 allmodconfig build):

In fVile included from /home/sfr/next/next/tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/bitsperlong.h:10:0,

 #error Inconsistent word size. Check asm/bitsperlong.h
  ^

(and more similar).

I have applied my patch from yesterday ("tools: Simplify
__BITS_PER_LONG define"), and will continue on.

Ok, I'm trying the other way around, i.e. building a ppc64 kernel on a
x86_64 machine, that is one setup I have access to easily.

No such luck, everything works as expected, objtool doesn't even get
compiled, likely it doesn't support powerpc binaries so it isn't built:

cross compiling to x86-32 bits from x86-64 also works :-\

/me scratches head

Probably it got the local definition of bitsperlong.h, i.e. the size on the host build
and then comparing it against the one for the target host...

Anyway, can you try the patch below to see what value is landing on __BITS_PER_LONG?
