Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 8e5564e6c7 perf tools: Make target to generate self contained source tarball
Useful for when people want to try some version of the perf tools and don't
wants to download the kernel tarball.

Here is a session using this new target:

  [root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# make help | grep -i perf
    perf-tar-src-pkg    - Build perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar source tarball
    perf-targz-src-pkg  - Build perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.gz source tarball
    perf-tarbz2-src-pkg - Build perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.bz2 source tarball
  [root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# make perf-tarbz2-src-pkg
    TAR
  [root@emilia linux-2.6-tip]# ls -la perf-2.6.35-rc1.tar.bz2
