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

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