[PATCH] perf env: Normalize aarch64.* to arm64 in normalize_arch()

From: Li Huafei
Date: Thu Jul 22 2021 - 21:48:51 EST


On my aarch64 big endian machine, the perf annotate does not work.

# perf annotate
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of [kernel.kallsyms] for cycles (253 samples, percent: local period)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of [kernel.kallsyms] for cycles (1 samples, percent: local period)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of [kernel.kallsyms] for cycles (47 samples, percent: local period)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...

This is because the arch_find() function uses the normalized architecture
name provided by normalize_arch(), and my machine's architecture name
aarch64_be is not normalized to arm64. Like other architectures such as
arm and powerpc, we can fuzzy match the architecture names associated with
aarch64.* and normalize them.
