One problem I just noticed, and that is not preventing me from merging
this now, as it has a (obvious) workaround:

If I try using O= I better make sure the directory it points to exists:

[acme@sandy linux]$ ls -la tools/perf/*.o tools/perf/util/*.o
ls: cannot access tools/perf/*.o: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access tools/perf/util/*.o: No such file or directory
[acme@sandy linux]$ mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf/
[acme@sandy linux]$ time make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/ install-bin
make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build

Auto-detecting system features:
...                     backtrace: [ on  ]
...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
<SNIP>
make: Leaving directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'

real	0m2.751s
user	0m4.270s
sys	0m1.240s
[acme@sandy linux]$ ls -la tools/perf/*.o tools/perf/util/*.o
ls: cannot access tools/perf/*.o: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access tools/perf/util/*.o: No such file or directory
[acme@sandy linux]$ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/perf
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 9791281 Oct  9 11:32 /tmp/build/perf/perf
[acme@sandy linux]$

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Works as expected, but if I do:

[acme@sandy linux]$ rm -rf /tmp/build
[acme@sandy linux]$ time make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/ install-bin
make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build

Auto-detecting system features:
...                     backtrace: [ on  ]
<SNIP>
make: Leaving directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'

real	0m2.715s
user	0m4.118s
sys	0m1.204s
[acme@sandy linux]$ ls -la tools/perf/*.o tools/perf/util/*.o | wc -l
94
[acme@sandy linux]$ ls -la /tmp/build
ls: cannot access /tmp/build: No such file or directory
[acme@sandy linux]$

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It silently ignores the O= target, as it doesn't exists.

Previous, expected behaviour is for the build process to stop, complaining that the
target directory doesn't exists.
