New point version.

There is an annoying issue causing vmstat to fail on arm64, which is fixed by ​https://gitlab.com/procps-ng/procps/-/commit/b89e323.

On x86 (32-bit or 64-bit) if a single one-core CPU w/o hyper-threading capability is used, and the host kernel is 3.12 or earlier, the issue can also cause 3 test failures (but things will be normal once LFS kernel is booted).
