Ok, some were already done without those assignments:

tools/perf/Makefile.config:    $(warning No alternatives command found, you need to set JDIR= to point to the root of your Java directory)
tools/perf/Makefile.config:    $(warning No openjdk development package found, please install JDK package, e.g. openjdk-8-jdk, java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel)

And the docs says its meaningless, and it makes the Makefiles more
compact, all good:
