Idea is to try to have the perf tools, since they are hosted in the
kernel and developed mostly by people with kernel background, to use
code and practices used in the kernel proper.

It started just keeping private copies, I guess it should get back to
that since the reaction to this kind of same source repo code sharing
was, well, not good :-)
