perf bpf: Fix handling of minimal vmlinux.h file when interrupting the build
Ingo reported that he was seeing these when hitting Control+C during a
perf tools build:
Makefile.perf:1149: *** Missing bpftool input for generating vmlinux.h. Stop.
The failure happens when you don't have vmlinux.h or vmlinux with BTF.
ifeq ($(VMLINUX_H),)
ifeq ($(VMLINUX_BTF),)
$(error Missing bpftool input for generating vmlinux.h)
endif
endif
VMLINUX_BTF can be empty if you didn't build a kernel or it doesn't have
a BTF section and the current kernel also has no BTF. This is totally
ok.
But VMLINUX_H should be set to the minimal version in the source tree
(unless you overwrite it manually) when you don't pass GEN_VMLINUX_H=1
(which requires VMLINUX_BTF should not be empty). The problem is that
it's defined in Makefile.config which is not included for `make clean`.
