I was just rebasing my syscall table work on top of your perf/core tree.
It looks like that there is a significant difference compared to linux
master tree.
With f704ef44602fbf403e6722c7ed13f62d17e8cb20 ("s390/perf: add support for
perf_regs and libdw"), Heiko introduced a change in the Makefile.config:

ifeq ($(NO_PERF_REGS),0)
The CFLAGS actually should applied to the s390 block and not in the x86
block. Somehow this got messed up with git cherryp-pick / am. So actually,
this should go into the section above:
diff --git a/tools/perf/Makefile.config b/tools/perf/Makefile.config
index ed65e82..0833d9f 100644
