tools: Fix bitfield dependency failure
A perf build failure was reported by Thomas Voegtle on stable kernel v6.6.120: CC tests/sample-parsing.o CC util/intel-pt-decoder/intel-pt-pkt-decoder.o CC util/perf-regs-arch/perf_regs_csky.o CC util/arm-spe-decoder/arm-spe-pkt-decoder.o CC util/perf-regs-arch/perf_regs_loongarch.o In file included from util/arm-spe-decoder/arm-spe-pkt-decoder.h:10, from util/arm-spe-decoder/arm-spe-pkt-decoder.c:14: /local/git/linux-stable-rc/tools/include/linux/bitfield.h: In function ‘le16_encode_bits’: /local/git/linux-stable-rc/tools/include/linux/bitfield.h:166:31: error: implicit declaration of function ‘cpu_to_le16’; did you mean ‘htole16’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] ____MAKE_OP(le##size,u##size,cpu_to_le##size,le##size##_to_cpu) \ ^~~~~~~~~ /local/git/linux-stable-rc/tools/include/linux/bitfield.h:149:9: note: in definition of macro ‘____MAKE_OP’ return to((v & field_mask(field)) * field_multiplier(field)); \ ^~ /local/git/linux-stable-rc/tools/include/linux/bitfield.h:170:1: note: in expansion of macro ‘__MAKE_OP’ __MAKE_OP(16) Fix this by including linux/kernel.h, which provides the required definitions. The issue was not found on the mainline due to the relevant C files have included kernel.h. It'd be good to merge this change on mainline as well for robustness.
