Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Enable warnings through HOSTCFLAGS

The tools build system uses KBUILD_HOSTCFLAGS symbol for obvious purposes.

However this is not set for anything under tools/

As such, host tools apps built have no compiler warnings enabled.

Declare HOSTCFLAGS for perf tools build, and also use that symbol in
declaration of host_c_flags. HOSTCFLAGS comes from EXTRA_WARNINGS, which
is independent of target platform/arch warning flags.

Using HOSTCFLAGS, as opposed to KBUILD_HOSTCFLAGS, is going opposite
direction to commit 96f14fe738b6 ("kbuild: Rename HOSTCFLAGS to
KBUILD_HOSTCFLAGS"), so would like further opinion from Laura and
Masahiro.
