Andres Freund 806dbe2dfa perf c2c: Fix return type for histogram sorting comparision functions

commit c1c8013ec34d7163431d18367808ea40b2e305f8 upstream.

Commit 722ddfde366f ("perf tools: Fix time sorting") changed - correctly
so - hist_entry__sort to return int64. Unfortunately several of the
builtin-c2c.c comparison routines only happened to work due the cast
caused by the wrong return type.

This causes meaningless ordering of both the cacheline list, and the
cacheline details page. E.g a simple:

  perf c2c record -a sleep 3
  perf c2c report

will result in cacheline table like
  =================================================
             Shared Data Cache Line Table
  =================================================
  #
  #        ------- Cacheline ----------    Total     Tot  - LLC Load Hitm -  - Store Reference -  - Load Dram -     LLC  Total  - Core Load Hit -  - LLC Load Hit -

i.e. with the list not being ordered by Total Hitm.
