hi,
we changed our build system just recently and this patch
is made over the old one.. comments below

LIB_H is no longer supported, the build now detects
all headers automatically

the tools/perf/arch/mips/Makefile now provides make arch's
dependent variables setup, so your's should be:

---
ifndef NO_DWARF
PERF_HAVE_DWARF_REGS := 1
endif
---

from building side mips seems similar to arch/powerpc/ setup:

---
[jolsa@krava perf]$ cat arch/powerpc/Build 
libperf-y += util/
[jolsa@krava perf]$ cat arch/powerpc/util/Build 
libperf-y += header.o

libperf-$(CONFIG_DWARF) += dwarf-regs.o
libperf-$(CONFIG_DWARF) += skip-callchain-idx.o
---

so arch/mips/Build should be identical to arch/powerpc/Build
and arch/mips/util/Build should look like:

---
libperf-$(CONFIG_DWARF)     += dwarf-regs.o
libperf-$(CONFIG_LIBUNWIND) += unwind.o
---

could you please also rename 'unwind.c' to 'unwind-libunwind.c',
cause we have also libdw unwind and we try to keep them separated

thanks,
jirka
