I am seeing a build failure while compiling tools/perf/

In file included from tests/genelf.c:14:
tests/../util/genelf.h:5:10: fatal error: linux/math.h: No such file or 
directory
 5 | #include <linux/math.h>
 | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Patch 43 in this series is causing this.

Why is this not reproducible upstream ?

Vegard bisected the commit which makes it not reproducible upstream and 
this commit is missing in 5.15.y:
Commit: d6e6a27d960f ("tools: Fix math.h breakage")

Backport request for this was made here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAMVNhxS-6qNfxy8jHrY5EtZASTL9gAvZi=BdTkUA5_5CSQ2Cmg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ 



Thanks,
Harshit
