Title:
  systemd build error on aarch64 with "Failed to parse personality,
  ignoring: x86"

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  download source code from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/229-4ubuntu21,
  build with `dpkg-buildpackage` on aarch64, and build break with the following messages:

  ```
  + test /tmp/test-exec_workingdirectory = /tmp/test-exec_workingdirectory
    2 [/root/neil/systemd/test/systemd-229.orig/test/test-execute/exec-personality-x86.service:7] Failed to parse personality, ignoring: x86
    3 + uname -m
    4 + c=aarch64
    5 + test aarch64 = i686
    6 exec-personality-x86.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
    7 exec-personality-x86.service: Unit entered failed state.
    8 exec-personality-x86.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
    9 Assertion 'service->main_exec_status.status == status_expected' failed at ../src/test/test-execute.c:65, function check(). Aborting.
  ```

  it should run into x86 test case with:
  ```
  87  static void test_exec_personality(Manager *m) {
  88  #if defined(__x86_64__)
  89          test(m, "exec-personality-x86-64.service", 0, CLD_EXITED);
  90  
  91  #elif defined(__s390__)
  92          test(m, "exec-personality-s390.service", 0, CLD_EXITED);
  93  
  94  #else
  95          test(m, "exec-personality-x86.service", 0, CLD_EXITED);
  96  #endif
  97  }
  ```

  after checked upstream systemd source code,
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/12591863 will fix it.

  is this patch already applied? or I get invalid build steps on
  aarch64?
