tools: Define a Makefile function to do subdir processing

Define a Makefile function that can be called with $(call ...) to wrap
the subdir make invocations in tools/Makefile.

This will allow us in the next patch to insert bits in there to honour
O= flags when called from the top-level Makefile.

Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Lots of changes:

- (much) improved assembly annotation support in perf report, with
jump visualization, searching, navigation, visual output
improvements and more.

- kernel support for AMD IBS PMU hardware features. Notably 'perf
record -e cycles:p' and 'perf top -e cycles:p' should work without
skid now, like PEBS does on the Intel side, because it takes
advantage of IBS transparently.

- the libtracevents library: it is the first step towards unifying
tracing tooling and perf, and it also gives a tracing library for
external tools like powertop to rely on.

- infrastructure: various improvements and refactoring of the UI
modules and related code

- infrastructure: cleanup and simplification of the profiling
targets code (--uid, --pid, --tid, --cpu, --all-cpus, etc.)

- tons of robustness fixes all around

- various ftrace updates: speedups, cleanups, robustness
improvements.

- typing 'make' in tools/ will now give you a menu of projects to
build and a short help text to explain what each does.

- ... and lots of other changes I forgot to list.

The perf record make bzImage + perf report regression you reported
should be fixed."

* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (166 commits)

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Fixes and improvements for perf/core:

. Overhaul the tools/ makefiles, gluing them to the top level Makefile, from
Borislav Petkov.

. Move the UI files from tools/perf/util/ui/ to tools/perf/ui/. Also move
the GTK+ browser to tools/perf/ui/gtk/, from Namhyung Kim.

. Only fallback to sw cycles counter on ENOENT for the hw cycles, from
Robert Richter

. Trivial fixes from Robert Richter

. Handle the autogenerated bison/flex files better, from Namhyung and Jiri Olsa.

. Navigate jump instructions in the annotate browser, just press enter or ->,
still needs support for a jump navigation history, i.e. to go back.

. Search string in the annotate browser: same keys as vim:
/ forward
n next backward/forward
? backward

. Clarify number of events/samples in the report header, from Ashay Rane

Now you can do

from the toplevel kernel directory and have the respective tool built.

If you want to build and install it, do

$ make tools/<toolname>_install

$ make tools/<toolname>_clean

should clean the respective tool directories.

If you want to clean all in tools, simply do

$ make tools/clean

Also, if you want to get what the possible targets are, simply calling

$ make tools/

should give you the short help.

$ make tools/install

installs all tools, of course. Doh.
