Adrian Hunter a685c7a4a2 perf-with-kcore.sh: Always allow fix_buildid_cache_permissions
The user's buildid cache may contain entries added by root even if root
has its own home directory (e.g. by using perfconfig to specify the same
buildid dir), so remove that validation.

Adrian Hunter c501e90b47 perf tools: Add perf-with-kcore script
Decoding an Intel PT trace of the kernel requires an accurate kernel
object image.  This is provided by making a copy of kcore.  However the
copy needs to be made under the same conditions as the original
recording, and then it needs to be associated with the perf.data file.
The perf-with-kcore script does that.

The script also checks the permissions on the buildid cache and can be
used to fix them.  That is needed for distributions where root does not
have a home directory and consequently writes to the same buildid cache
as the user, resulting in cached files that the user does not have
access to.

Example:

$ ./perf-with-kcore
Usage: perf-with-kcore <perf sub-command> <perf.data directory> [<sub-command options> [ -- <workload>]]
       <perf sub-command> can be record, script, report or inject
   or: perf-with-kcore fix_buildid_cache_permissions
$ ./perf-with-kcore record pt_uname -e intel_pt// -- uname
Recording
