Subject: [PATCH] perf kvm stat: Fix build error

Since commit ceea279f9376 ("perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch
directory"), a native build on Arm64 machine reports:

  util/kvm-stat-arch/kvm-stat-x86.c:7:10: fatal error: asm/svm.h: No such file or directory
    7 | #include <asm/svm.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.

The build fails to find x86's asm headers when building for Arm64.  Fix
this by including asm headers with relative path instead.

Fixes: ceea279f9376 ("perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch directory")
