it looks like this is not enough, at least on fedora 35

I had to add changes below on top of your patch, it fixed the perl
feature detection and perf build itself, but I'm still getting error
with perf/python.so:

	$ CC=clang make JOBS=1 
	...
	  GEN     python/perf.so
	python_ext_build/tmp/home/jolsa/kernel/linux-perf/tools/perf/util/python.o: file not recognized: file format not recognized
	clang-13: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
	error: command 'clang' failed with exit status 1
	cp: cannot stat 'python_ext_build/lib/perf*.so': No such file or directory

with:

	$ file python_ext_build/tmp/home/jolsa/kernel/linux-perf/tools/perf/util/python.o
	python_ext_build/tmp/home/jolsa/kernel/linux-perf/tools/perf/util/python.o: LLVM IR bitcode

do you get clean compile with python lang enabled?
