I noticed that the fast path feature detection was failing:
$ cat /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/feature/test-all.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcap: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$
The patch removing the dependency (Fixes tag below) didn't remove the
detection of libcap, and as the fast path feature detection (test-all.c)
had -lcap in its Makefile link list of libraries to link, it was failing
when libcap-devel is not available, fix it by removing those leftover
files.
Fixes: e25ebda78e ("perf cap: Tidy up and improve capability testing")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
