linux-next: build failure after merge of the net tree

From: Stephen Rothwell

Hi all,

After merging the net tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc64le perf)
failed like this:

Warning: tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h differs from kernel
bpf.c: In function 'bpf_prog_attach':
bpf.c:180:6: error: 'union bpf_attr' has no member named 'attach_flags'; did you mean 'map_flags'?
attr.attach_flags = flags;
^

Caused by commit

7f677633379b ("bpf: introduce BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag")

Unfortunately, the perf header files are kept separate from the kernel
header files proper and are not automatically copied over :-(

I have applied the following build fix patch for today.
