i've applied your patch to latest -tip and resolved the conflicts
manually. Normal build works, but static one does not yet:

aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> make -j LDFLAGS=-static
Makefile:484: *** No libelf.h/libelf found, please install
libelf-dev/elfutils-libelf-devel and glibc-dev[el]. Stop.

mind double checking my changes in

Thanks,
