bcf6edcd6f perf kvm: Events analysis tool
Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly

Usage:
- kvm stat
  run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
  perf stat

- trace kvm events:
  perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
  can append the events like this:
  perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a

  If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
  --pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.

- show the result:
  perf kvm stat report

The output example is following:
13005
13059

total 2 guests are running on the host

Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]

f1439c315b perf tools: Fix make tarballs
The patch series that introduced the top level tools/ makefile and the
libtraceevent broke this feature where files needed to build in a
detached tarball were not included in the MANIFEST file and thus not
included in the tarball.

Fix it by adding the relevant files to the MANIFEST.

eca1c3e3f9 perf tools: Fix out of tree compiles
For latest tip/perf/core tree Compiles are failing on:

GEN common-cmds.h
make: *** No rule to make target `../../arch/x86/lib/memset_64.S', needed by `builtin-annotate.o'.  Stop.

Resolve by adding memset.* to the tar file.

3e8e24f2fc perf packaging: add memcpy to perf MANIFEST
There seems to be a new dependency on arch/*/lib/memcpy*.S when compiling
the perf tool.  Make sure that file is included in the MANIFEST when
creating the tarball.
