perf tools: Make target to generate self contained source tarball
Useful for when people want to try some version of the perf tools and don't
wants to download the kernel tarball.
Here is a session using this new target:
[root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# make help | grep -i perf
perf-tar-src-pkg - Build perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar source tarball
perf-targz-src-pkg - Build perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.gz source tarball
perf-tarbz2-src-pkg - Build perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.bz2 source tarball
[root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# make perf-tarbz2-src-pkg
TAR
[root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# ls -la perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.bz2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 295731 May 31 11:18 perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.bz2
[root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# tar xf perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.bz2
[root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# cd perf-2.6.35-rc1
[root@emilia perf-2.6.35-rc1]# ls

[root@emilia perf-2.6.35-rc1]# cd tools/perf
