While testing perf with an updated Debian experimental cross compiler
(gcc version 14.2.0 (Debian 14.2.0-13)) this started failing:
In file included from tests/hwmon_pmu.c:12:
tests/hwmon_pmu.c: In function 'do_test':

The usual make that %lld a PRIu64 (since arg7 is
evsel->core.attr.config, which is a __u64) but then on Fedora 44 (gcc
version 16.1.1 20260515 (Red Hat 16.1.1-2)) it ends up with:
In file included from tests/hwmon_pmu.c:13:

| ^~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
So the way to satisfy both compilers is to also add a (u64) cast to
arg7.

As the inttypes.h definitions match stdint.h would it make more sense
to use uint64_t for the cast?

Or use (unsigned long long) and "%lld".
Using PRIu64 and a cast is the worst of both worlds.
Where does the definition of __u64 come from?
#define __u64 @@
at the top of a file might give a clue.
I thought it was a Linux kernel type matching u64 - which is always 'unsigned long long'.
