Barring that, I've confirmed that each of my new patches builds successfully
under the following build commands: (I have a copy of libbpf that supports
".emit_strings" in /usr/local/include)

    cd tools/perf
    make clean
    make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 LIBBPF_INCLUDE=/usr/local/include
    ./perf check feature libbpf-strings

    make clean
    make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1
    ./perf check feature libbpf-strings

    make clean
    make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 NO_LIBBPF=1
    ./perf check feature libbpf-strings

Please let me know if that seems like sufficient testing.
