[PATCH] perf: bpf: Fix build breakage due to libbpf

perf build is currently (v4.4-rc5) broken on powerpc:

bpf.c:28:4: error: #error __NR_bpf not defined. libbpf does not support
your arch.
 #  error __NR_bpf not defined. libbpf does not support your arch.
    ^

Fix this by including tools/perf/config/Makefile.arch for the proper
$ARCH macro. While at it, remove redundant LP64 macro definition.
