Noticed that this regresses my environment, Fedora 21:

  [acme@zoo linux]$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ; m
  make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ OFF ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
  ...                      libaudit: [ on  ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
  ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
  ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
  ...                      libslang: [ on  ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
  ...                          zlib: [ on  ]
  ...                          lzma: [ on  ]

  config/Makefile:267: No libdw.h found or old libdw.h found or elfutils
  is older than 0.138, disables dwarf support. Please install new
  elfutils-devel/libdw-dev
    MKDIR    /tmp/build/perf/util/

Have not investigated, just noticed that dwarf is disabled if this patch
is applied, removing it for now, will check later.
