Trying to apply the patchkit:

[acme@zoo linux]$ make -C tools clean > /dev/null 2>&1
[acme@zoo linux]$ make -C tools/perf build-test
make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
Testing Makefile
tests/make:15: /scripts/Makefile.arch: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target '/scripts/Makefile.arch'.  Stop.
tests/make:5: recipe for target 'all' failed
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
Makefile:81: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
make: *** [build-test] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
[acme@zoo linux]$

What am I doing wrong?
