Humm,

Before:

Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h'

After:

Warning: Kernel ABI header at '../arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h' differs from latest version at '../../arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h'


The previous version is better, I can then just use:

diff -u tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h

and get what changed, with your change I have to go to tools/perf before
doing that diff, which is an unnecessary extra step in at least my
workflow.
