Right, what I meant was to add the $(LIBTRACEEVENT): target above to the
toplevel Makefile so that when you're in the kernel source tree, you do

$ make tools/perf

it has a target $(LIBTRACEEVENT) dependent on it in the toplevel
Makefile instead of perf's Makefile to avoid duplication. Then, when
perf is rebuilt, it simply links with this lib. IOW, not have the "make
-C" call in perf's Makefile but in the toplevel Makefile because other
tools will want to use libtraceevent.a too and link against it.

Oh well, the toplevel Makefile patches aren't upstream either so we're
wasting cycles here, I'll fix that up when the times comes.

Thanks.
