Tiezhu Yang 6a1515c962 perf build: Fix error message when asking for -fsanitize=address without required libraries
When build perf with ASan or UBSan, if libasan or libubsan can not find,
the feature-glibc is 0 and there exists the following error log which is
wrong, because we can find gnu/libc-version.h in /usr/include,
glibc-devel is also installed.

After install libasan and libubsan, the feature-glibc is 1 and the build
process is success, so the cause is related with libasan or libubsan, we
should check them and print an error log to reflect the reality.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
