Commit Message

libperf specifies paths to includes in its output
directory if they exist, however install_headers target
is run in parallel to source files being built for libperf
and can race with objects being built for libperf.

This patch ensures that all headers are built/installed before
they are used.

Specifying additional include paths via EXTRA_CFLAGS is of
no consequence anymore after [1] because it now is appended to
CFLAGS, so if we are trying to do include path oderining via
EXTRA_CFLAGS it will have no effect if those paths already are
in compiler commandline
