Ian Rogers f89fb55714 perf build: Don't propagate subdir to submakes for install_headers
subdir is added to the OUTPUT which fails as part of building
install_headers when passed from "make -C tools perf_install".

Committer testing:

The original reporter (see the Link: below) had trouble with this:

$ make -C tools perf_install

That ended up with errors like this:

  /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/scripts/Makefile.include:17: *** output directory "/var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/perf/" does not exist.  Stop.

With this patch applied we now get it installed at:

  INSTALL /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h

As expected:

  $ ls -la /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h
  -rw-r--r--. 1 acme acme 1146 Jan  3 15:42 /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h

And if we clean tools with:

  $ make -C tools clean

it gets cleaned up:

  $ ls -la /var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h
  ls: cannot access '/var/home/acme/git/perf-urgent/tools/perf/libperf/include/perf/bpf_perf.h': No such file or directory
  $

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.
