We can always flip this around if required. When I initially did the kernel
tree based builds for perf it was right in a specific kernel recipe, and then
pulled it out into linux-tools.inc for easier reuse it was the intention that
just including/requiring that .inc file would trigger a build of perf.

I'm open to inhibiting this via the blacklist or via some other suitable
mechanism.

But did we get some include creep (or maybe I'm just missing it) ?
When I just checked my tree, I only see a handful of places that linux-tools.inc
will be pulled in and trigger a build.

Cheers,

Bruce
