Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] perf tools: [uclibc] fix statfs.f_type data type mismatch build error

From: Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@...opsys.com>

ARC Linux uses the no legacy syscalls abi and corresponding uClibc headers
statfs defines f_type to be U32 which causes perf build breakage

http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/tree/libc/sysdeps/linux/common-generic/bits/statfs.h
