Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the tip tree

Hi all,

After merging the tip tree, today's linux-next build (perf) failed
like this:

Caused by commit

  2a522b53c470 ("x86/insn: Support big endian cross-compiles")

I have reverted commits

a23b701ae9b3 objtool: Rework header include paths
1b4998c364bc objtool: Fix x86 orc generation on big endian cross compiles
317664a7fcc9 objtool: Fix reloc generation on big endian cross compiles
2a522b53c470 x86/insn: Support big endian cross-compiles
2486baae2cf6 objtool: Allow nested externs to enable BUILD_BUG()

for today.

This is a PowerPC LE native build of tools/perf.
