[ Upstream commit 21e9ba5373fc2cec608fd68301a1dbfd14df3172 ]

Ubuntu mainline builds for ppc64le are failing with the below error (*):
    CALL    /home/kernel/COD/linux/scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
    DESCEND  bpf/resolve_btfids

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                        libelf: [ [32mon[m  ]
  ...                          zlib: [ [32mon[m  ]
  ...                           bpf: [ [31mOFF[m ]

  BPF API too old
  make[6]: *** [Makefile:295: bpfdep] Error 1
  make[5]: *** [Makefile:54: /home/kernel/COD/linux/debian/build/build-generic/tools/bpf/resolve_btfids//libbpf.a] Error 2
  make[4]: *** [Makefile:71: bpf/resolve_btfids] Error 2
  make[3]: *** [/home/kernel/COD/linux/Makefile:1890: tools/bpf/resolve_btfids] Error 2
  make[2]: *** [/home/kernel/COD/linux/Makefile:335: __build_one_by_one] Error 2
  make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/kernel/COD/linux/debian/build/build-generic'
  make[1]: *** [Makefile:185: __sub-make] Error 2
  make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/kernel/COD/linux'

resolve_btfids needs to be build as a host binary and it needs libbpf.
However, libbpf Makefile hardcodes an include path utilizing $(ARCH).
This results in mixing of cross-architecture headers resulting in a
build failure.

The specific header include path doesn't seem necessary for a libbpf
build. Hence, remove the same.
