linux-yocto-3.0 perf-scripting updates

From: Tom Zanussi <[email protected]>

This patchset comprises the kernel side of the modifications needed to enable the Perl and Python bindings for perf scripting for linux-yocto-3.0.

I haven't had time to build-test all four meta-yocto machines that need this, but I did do a successful build-test of the atom-pc machine and got the expected perf compile/install results. I assume that since it worked for atom-pc it should also work for the other meta-yocto machines as well. I don't have the hardware to test the meta-yocto machines either, but since essentially the same thing worked fine for the similar set of qemu machines as well as all other hardware tested so far, we can probably assume the same for these.

Please pull into linux-yocto-3.0 yocto/standard/base.

Thanks,

Tom
