Subject: tools/perf/build: Fix non-existent build directory handling
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3fb66335e13ef7426affe9efa48c08857202c1cb;p=linux-beck.git

tools/perf/build: Fix non-existent build directory handling

Arnaldo reported that non-existent build directories were not
recognized  properly. The reason is readlink failure causing 'O'
to become empty.

Solve it by passing through the 'O' variable unmodified if
readlink fails.
