Subject: [PATCH 01/18] perf build: Clarify header version warning message

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...nel.org>

Change this:

  Warning: arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h differs from kernel
  Warning: arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h differs from kernel
  Warning: arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel
  Warning: arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h'
  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h'
  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h'
  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h'

... to make it clearer what the warning is about, and to make it easier
to diff the two versions when syncing up the files.
