[PATCH] tools: Remove duplicate definition of ia64_mf() on ia64

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz]

The ia64_mf() macro defined in tools/arch/ia64/include/asm/barrier.h
is already defined in <asm/gcc_intrin.h> on ia64 which causes libbpf
failing to build:

  CC       /usr/src/linux/tools/bpf/bpftool//libbpf/staticobjs/libbpf.o

                 from libbpf.c:37:

  382 | #define ia64_mf() __asm__ volatile ("mf" ::: "memory")
      |
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Thus, remove the definition from tools/arch/ia64/include/asm/barrier.h.

Shall I ask Andrew Morton to pick up this patch? It's needed to fix the Debian
kernel build on ia64 and it would be great if it could be included for 5.12.
