[PATCH] samples/bpf: fix a build problem

From: Yonghong Song <hidden>
Date: 2017-06-21 20:48:30

tracex5_kern.c build failed with the following error message:
  ../samples/bpf/tracex5_kern.c:12:10: fatal error: 'syscall_nrs.h' file not found
  #include "syscall_nrs.h"
The generated file syscall_nrs.h is put in build/samples/bpf directory,
but this directory is not in include path, hence build failed.

The fix is to add $(obj) into the clang compilation path.

Applied, thanks.

Please be clear in the future that your patch is targetting 'net-next' by
specifying this in your subject lines:

	[PATCH net-next] ...

I had to figure this out by hand.

Thank you.

Thanks, Dave. Sorry, I forgot to tag the branch name. I will make sure it happen in the future.
