I think you can work on perf/ebpf, I can't envision any major problems
arising from that, what I'll do is basically cherry-pick pure fixes that
are there, IIRC there are several (like the perf test emitting errors in
non verbose mode, etc), and then rebase perf/ebpf on top of that, just
some patch reordering should take place.

At that point I'll just rename perf/ebpf to perf/core and collect more
non-pure-bug-fixes on top of it.
