I applied your patch and will push it to Ingo, now we must cross our
fingers so that Stephen doesn't come back to us once more telling it is
still broken :o)
 
Unfortunately, this is what I get when I just build perf/core:
 
  DESCEND  objtool
  CC       /home/sfr/next/x86_64_allmodconfig/tools/objtool/builtin-check.o
Cool! objtool is fixed, we're not at a different tool using those
headers, and your patch fixes it, I see Andy acked it, I'll merge this
and push to Ingo,

Thanks,

The be clear: this is a ppc64le hosted, x86_64 target cross build.

I than added the following patch, and the build finishes successfully.
