It's probably another variation of this bug, but the commit you cite got merged
into 4.10-rc1, while the problem still persists in mainline (4.11-rc2+).

the problem is in objtool build right? the fix was for perf build

Ah, got it. Yes, that must be it then. I supposed we coul duplicate what you
did for perf in objtool, but a cleaner way would be to generalize it for all of
tools/, right?

right, the thing is that objtool is standalone application like perf,
and before their builds can go the 'fixdep' needs to be there.. that's
a condition to use the tools/build framework

not sure how offensive it'd be to current Makefiles if we come with some
generalized code to do that.. I'll think about it, but I think we might
be better of the way we are now

Humm, can't we have just one fixdep?

we have.. it's just the matter who will build it first ;-)

Ok, I haven't said "can't we have just one fixdep?", what I really said
was "can't we make sure we don't have races building it?" ;-)
