[PATCH 2/3] tools build: Fix Makefile(s) to properly invoke tools build

[Jiri Olsa]

Several fixes were needed to allow following builds:
  $ make tools/tmon
  $ make -C <kernelsrc> tools/perf
  $ make -C <kernelsrc>/tools perf

 - some of the tools (perf) use same make variables as in
   kernel build, unsetting srctree and objtree
 - using original $(O) for O variable
 - perf build does not follow the descend function setup
   invoking it via it's own make rule

I tried the rest of the tools/Makefile targets and they
seem to work now.
