[PATCH] perf build: Fix a build error on 32-bit x86

[Namhyung Kim]

The commit d7507a94a072 ("KVM: SVM: Treat exit_code as an unsigned
64-bit value through all of KVM") added "ull" suffix to SVM exit codes
and it makes the 32-bit build fail like below.

As the exit_code was unsigned long, the compiler complained about the
truncation.  Let's convert it to u64 to suppress the error.
