[PATCH] perf build: Fix unescaped # in perf build-test

From: James Clark
Date: Tue Apr 25 2023 - 06:45:31 EST


With the following bash and make versions:

$ make --version
GNU Make 4.2.1
Built for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu

$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 5.0.17(1)-release (aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu)

This error is encountered when running the build-test target:

$ make -C tools/perf build-test
tests/make:181: *** unterminated call to function 'shell': missing ')'. Stop.
make: *** [Makefile:103: build-test] Error 2

Fix it by escaping the # which was causing make to interpret the rest of
the line as a comment leaving the unclosed opening bracket.

Fixes: 56d5229471ee ("tools build: Pass libbpf feature only if libbpf 1.0+")
