Cross compiling perf to other platform failed due to missing symbol:

This is because we allow newly introduced intel-pt-decoder to be
compiled to not only X86, but tsc.c which required by it is compiled
for x86 only.
This patch fix the compiling error by allow tsc.c to be compiled if
CONFIG_AUXTRACE is set, no matter the target platform.
Comment from Arnaldo:
There were some changes in this area, i.e. x86 needs tsc, and auxtrace
as well, so both should express that via:
libperf-$(CONFIG_X86) += tsc.o
libperf-$(CONFIG_AUXTRACE) += tsc.o
Because on !x86 we want to process perf.data files containing Intel PT.

Adrian, I think this one covers what you would resend, no? If it does,
can I have your Acked-by?

There was another chunk as well so I sent V2 of the other patch.
