The Makefile has been renamed to Makefile.perf; so now we check both
Makefile and Makefile.perf to support 3.7 - 3.12 and 3.13 - beyond.

kernel commit cf4cca10 (perf tools: Move libelf check config into config/Makefile)
removes the NO_LIBELF check from the top-level Makefile
for newer kernels, if config/Makefile exists, we can assume that NO_LIBELF is
also there

This patch lines up the comments of packages that need a Linux kernel to be
built by buildroot, to the format:

perf uses asciidoc to generate documentation, but /usr/bin/asciidoc will
try to use buildroot's host-python which doesn't have the required
unicodedata. Recent kernels always try to build the man pages when
installing. To avoid that, define ASCIIDOC as an empty string so the
Makefile can't find the executable and skips the documentation
generation.

This patch lines up the comments in Config.in files that clarify which
toolchain options the package depends on.

perf is only available since kernel 2.6.31, so if we can't find
tools/perf/Makefile, error out and tell the user about this.
perf without libelf can only be built since kernel 3.7, so error out
and tell the user about this if he's trying to build perf from a < 3.7
kernel without libelf.
Unfortunately, those tests can only be build-time checks as we either
need to know the real kernel version (i.e, using LINUX_VERSION would
not be correct as it can be a Git commit ID, or Git tag), or have
access to the kernel sources themselves. So we can't prevent those
invalid situations at the configuration, we can only nicely tell the
user at build time.

Now that libelf is available thanks to elfutils (for glibc only),
allow to build perf against it if available.

This patch adds a new package that allows to build the 'perf'
userspace tool that comes in the tools/perf directory of the kernel
sources.
It is an alternative proposal to the one done by Kaiwan Billimoria
<kaiwan.billimoria@gmail.com>, in that it creates the package in
package/perf/. It therefore properly integrates with the Buildroot
package infrastructure.
Of course, the package depends on the Linux kernel to be built by
Buildroot, in order to get Perf sources matching the version of the
kernel that will be executed.
