No perf build failure ? I just tried again, with a simple

make defconfig
make tools/perf

on my test system, and it fails to build reliably with

util/evsel.c: In function ‘perf_evsel__exit’:
util/util.h:25:28: error: passing argument 1 of ‘free’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type

as reported. The culprit is commit d22b67e7dae9 ("perf parse-events: Fix 3
use after frees found with clang ASAN"). That is not a problem upstream because
of commit 7f7c536f23e6af ("tools lib: Adopt zalloc()/zfree() from tools/perf"),
but that is just hiding a problem with commit d22b67e7dae9 (which assigns a
pointer allocated with strdup() to a const * and then frees that const *). 

Anyway, how comes that only I seem to see that problem ?
