Jiri,

Do you mean this patch? I was planning on pinging Arnaldo again in a
couple of days about this patch, since the powerpc build is broken.

Subject: [PATCH] perf: Fix build break on powerpc due to sample_reg_masks

perf_regs.c does not get built on Powerpc as CONFIG_PERF_REGS is false.
So the weak definition for 'sample_regs_masks' doesn't get picked up.

Adding perf_regs.o to util/Build unconditionally, exposes a redefinition
error for 'perf_reg_value()' function (due to the static inline version
in util/perf_regs.h). So use #ifdef HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' around that
function.
