Subject: [PATCH 2/3] objtool: Fix ARCH=x86_64 build error

From: Shile Zhang <shile.zhang@...ux.alibaba.com>

Building objtool with ARCH=x86_64 fails with:

   $make ARCH=x86_64 -C tools/objtool
   ...
     CC       arch/x86/decode.o
   arch/x86/decode.c:10:22: fatal error: asm/insn.h: No such file or directory
    #include <asm/insn.h>
                         ^
   compilation terminated.
   mv: cannot stat ‘arch/x86/.decode.o.tmp’: No such file or directory
   make[2]: *** [arch/x86/decode.o] Error 1
   ...

The root cause is that the command-line variable 'ARCH' cannot be
overridden.  It can be replaced by 'SRCARCH', which is defined in
'tools/scripts/Makefile.arch'.
