if you're running a 4.2-rc kernel you are probably compiling it from scratch, so you can just build perf yourself (it's in the kernel source, in the tools/perf directory). Also it's usually not a problem using an older version of perf with a newer kernel (though to avoid the annoying shell-script redirection you'll have to run "perf_4.0" or whatever manually). I say usually, because even though perf versions are usually forward compatible I know that around 4.1 they changed up the tracepoint support so if you are using that functionality then you will need a newer version of the perf tool.
