This patch breaks perf compilation if DWARF support is not present.
DWARF support is auto-detected early in the build, so IMHO either user
should be informed to install the needed stuff, or the build should
succeed with limited functionality.
arch/powerpc/util/skip-callchain-idx.c:13:19: fatal error: dwarf.h: No such
file or directory #include <dwarf.h>

compilation terminated.
