Subject: [PATCH 3.18 02/85] tools build: Fix Makefile(s) to properly invoke tools build

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

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

From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@...nel.org>

commit 16671c1e1cac2dbb995feb4bc55082fd939b5c2c upstream.

Several fixes were needed to allow following builds:
  $ make tools/tmon
  $ make -C <kernelsrc> tools/perf
  $ make -C <kernelsrc>/tools perf

 - some of the tools (perf) use same make variables as in
   kernel build, unsetting srctree and objtree
 - using original $(O) for O variable
 - perf build does not follow the descend function setup
   invoking it via it's own make rule

I tried the rest of the tools/Makefile targets and they
seem to work now.
