Sergey, All,

On 2022-09-04 23:57 +0300, Sergey Matyukevich spake thusly:
> Linux kernel commit 00facc760903 ("perf jevents: Switch build to use
> jevents.py")

00facc760903 is only parts of 6.0-rc kernels so far, so unless one uses
bleeding edge technology, there is no issue. So, paying the price of a
host-pytohn3 build just for release-candidate kernels is a bit too much
in my opinion.

So, I added a config knob to drive this, like we have for host-openssl
and a few other host programs for building the kernel.

Applied to master with the above change, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
