[PATCH v3]Perf: Fix Makefile to clean all object files

[PATCH v3]Perf: Fix Makefile to clean all object files

[chenggang]

From: Chenggang Qin <chenggang.qcg@taobao.com>

If we execute "make clean" in perf's directory, many object files cannot be
cleaned in the current version.
For example:
While we run "make clean" in perf's directory, and run the command:
"fine ./ -name "*.o""
we will get:
------------------------------------
./arch/x86/util/unwind.o
./arch/x86/util/header.o
./arch/x86/util/dwarf-regs.o
./util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.o
./util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.o
./util/probe-finder.o
./util/dwarf-aux.o
./util/unwind.o
... ...
------------------------------------
These ".o" files are not cleaned.

The reason is:
These object files are added into "BUILTIN_OBJS" while "make" process check the environment.
If the make command is "clean", the environment check process is not executed. So,
these object files will not be added into "BUILTIN_OBJS" while we execute "make clean".

This patch fixed this problem.
We only add a command:
"find . -name "*.o" -exec rm -f {} \;"

I think the path should be $(OUTPUT) rather than ".".  How about this?

  find $(OUTPUT) -name "*.o" -delete
