Simply to say, all lib scripts are not needed for execute permission.
Yes, it's good to add a comment for the installation steps.

Ouch, if we can update the file tests/shell/coresight/Makefile as below:

$(CLEANDIRS):
        $(call QUIET_CLEAN, test-$(@:clean-%=%)) $(Q)$(MAKE) -C $(@:clean-%=%) clean >/dev/null

Then we can get output as:

  # make clean
  CLEAN   arm64
  CLEAN   libtraceevent
  CLEAN   libapi
  CLEAN   libbpf
  CLEAN   libsubcmd
  CLEAN   libperf
  CLEAN   fixdep
  CLEAN   feature-detect
  CLEAN   python
  CLEAN   bpf-skel
  CLEAN   test-asm_pure_loop
  CLEAN   test-memcpy_thread
  CLEAN   test-thread_loop
  CLEAN   test-unroll_loop_thread
  CLEAN   core-objs
  CLEAN   core-progs
  CLEAN   core-gen
  CLEAN   Documentation

Sorry for inconvenience.

Thanks,
