Try not mixing things that are maintained by different people into the
same patch kit, for instance, in my case its failing with:

hint: Use 'git am --show-current-patch=diff' to see the failed patch
When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$
So I'm checking if removing the objtool part makes this work.
