Hi,

I encountered the following compilation errors when trying to build BeeGFS on a Jetson Nano with an ARM64 chip running Ubuntu 18.04

The failure seems to be at the point where the kernel module is being compiled

```

scripts/Makefile.build:335: recipe for target '/home/picocluster/projects/beegfs/beegfs_v7_git/client_module/build/../source/filesystem/FhgfsOpsPages.o' failed

make[3]: *** [/home/picocluster/projects/beegfs/beegfs_v7_git/client_module/build/../source/filesystem/FhgfsOpsPages.o] Error 1

make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.140-tegra-ubuntu18.04_aarch64/kernel-4.9'

Makefile:148: recipe for target 'module' failed

make[1]: *** [module] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/picocluster/projects/beegfs/beegfs_v7_git/client_module/build'

```

Cheers

I will include a bit more of the error log
