Not something I'll argue too much :)
I'll apply the patch as it fixes a bug and later make the perf Makefile
complain about the output dir not existing, i.e. providing a message
similar to what the kernel proper does instead of the cryptic message we
get today.
If Kouichi-san or Bernd could provide that patch for perf/core, even
better! ;-)
