Subject: [PATCH] bpf: samples: exclude asm/sysreg.h for arm64

commit 338d4f49d6f7114a017d294ccf7374df4f998edc
("arm64: kernel: Add support for Privileged Access Never") includes sysreg.h
into futex.h and uaccess.h. But, the inline assembly used by asm/sysreg.h is
incompatible with llvm so it will cause BPF samples build failure for ARM64.
Since sysreg.h is useless for BPF samples, just exclude it from Makefile via
defining __ASM_SYSREG_H.
