My intention is to allow fcopy daemon build only for the arch it has
been tested. IMO its better than restricting only for arm64/aarch64.

I tried with gcc '-m32' switch which I believe is for 32 bit x86 compilation
I see problems with it on other (kvp daemon) daemons too. I think we never
cared about 32 bit.

saurabh@Saurabh:/work/linux-next/tools/hv$ make ARCH=x86 CFLAGS=-m32
make[1]: Entering directory '/work/linux-next/tools/hv'
  CC      hv_kvp_daemon.o
hv_kvp_daemon.c:25:10: fatal error: sys/poll.h: No such file or directory
   25 | #include <sys/poll.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [/work/linux-next/tools/build/Makefile.build:106: hv_kvp_daemon.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/work/linux-next/tools/hv'
make: *** [Makefile:37: hv_kvp_daemon-in.o] Error 2


I don't have any strong opinion here, if you want I can allow x86 compilation
for fcopy daemon as well.

Please let me know what is your preference.

I am fine removing it in V2.
