Currently the set of available syscalls is generated from the target compilers default <asm-generic/unistd.h> (i.e. /usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h on a self-hosted system). The numeric values are then generated by the host compiler using tools/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h .
This leads to some nasty version skew problems (including failed perf builds if you are running a bleeding edge distro and want to build an older version of perf for testing). Let's make the target compiler use the local headers too.
