Toolchain built for ARCv1 (read for ARC700 cores) by default has
disabled atomic ops (-mno-atomic). When we build Linux kernel for ARC770
which has LL/SC instructions and thus may handle normally atomic ops we
explicitly add "-matomic" in CFLAGS. But since user-space perf utility has
no way to extract CPU config options from Kconfig/defconfig it uses
compiler default settings.
In case of ARCv2 (read ARC HS38) atomics are enabled by default and so
perf builds perfectly fine thus reenabling perf for ARC HS38 (actually
for non-ARC700 targets).

This fix contains 2 parts:
- kernel 4.1: backport upstream patch "perf build: Do not fail on missing Build file"
- add NO_LZMA=1 to perf MAKE_FLAGS to disable LZMA support

There are some places where there is a redundant declaration of
strlcpy() that prevents building perf otherwise.

perf was in the oldpackages repository, but it makes more sense to have
it part of the default package set since we build it from the Linux
kernel sources.
