I haven't checked if this is the exactly where this takes place but
should be in this series, 32-bit build is broken:

What I have is in perf-tools-next/tmp.perf-tools-next BTW, I'll try and
fix this tomorrow if you don't do it first. :-)

There are some more build problems in other containers/distros, I'll be
reporting as replies to the patches that looks related
