In 4.9.36 there were some patches to tools/perf that got pulled in that
break that part of build.  It looks like a couple of dependent patches
were omitted.  I don't see these patches included in 4.9.37.  Is it
possible to get those included so that tools/perf builds again?

Here's a link to the prior thread:
