I really need a faster machine, you provided the answer at this point:

- make_tags_O: cd . && make -f Makefile O=/tmp/tmp.xfRz6THR6o
  DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.y0nuN0Fr9n tags
- make_cscope_O: cd . && make -f Makefile O=/tmp/tmp.O6phQXHU4z
  DESTDIR=/tmp/tmp.5mdMeF1pH2 cscope
- tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
- make -C <kernelsrc> tools/perf
- make -C <kernelsrc>/tools perf

Almost there :-)
