Subject: [PATCH 27/40] perf jvmti: Fix linker error when libelf config is disabled

From: Sudeep Holla <Sudeep.Holla@....com>

When libelf is disabled in the configuration, we get the following
linker error:

  LINK     libperf-jvmti.so
  ld: cannot find -lelf
  Makefile.perf:515: recipe for target 'libperf-jvmti.so' failed

Jiri pointed out that both librt and libelf are not really required. So
this patch fixes the linker error by getting rid of unwanted libraries
in the linker stage.
