Files under tools use a different Build system than the kernel. The
Kconfig value won't have an effect. Check out Makefile.config:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/tree/tools/perf/Makefile.config?h=perf-tools-next
which is included into the build here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/tree/tools/perf/Makefile.perf?h=perf-tools-next#n313

It would be nice if this could be a runtime rather than build time detected.

Thanks,
