My other goal was to build perf with my selfmade or distro LLVM/Clang
and -std=gnu11.

I was able to do so:

$ git log --oneline --no-merges v5.17-rc6..for-5.17/tools-std_gnu11-dileks-v2
2d99b1cfa897 (for-5.17/tools-std_gnu11-dileks-v2) perf: Use -std=gnu11
c345a183c4ef tools: libtraceevent: Use -std=gnu11
26f77082f233 tools: libsubcmd: Use -std=gnu11
aaba58ec81c8 tools: libbpf: Use -std=gnu11
ffc800af3be4 tools: libapi: Use -std=gnu11

For perf/libperl-support I needed an extra patch:

$ git log --oneline --no-merges
v5.17-rc6..for-5.17/perf-libperl_support-clang-dileks
316a1917ec05 (for-5.17/perf-libperl_support-clang-dileks) perf: Fix
libperl support with clang and perl v5.34

For details see [1].

I can send the patches if someone wants them.
