[PATCH 4.1 06/11] perf tools: Fix build breakage if prefix= is specified

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jun 26 2015 - 21:12:09 EST


4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 75e84ab906ef8935cff3df3d8929f1bafea81599 upstream.

Invoking Makefile.perf with prefix= breaks the build since Makefile.perf
hands that variable down to Makefile.build where it overrides

prefix := $(subst ./,,$(OUTPUT)$(dir)/)

leading to errors like this:

No rule to make target '/usrabspath.o', needed by '/usrlibperf-in.o'
