commit be40920fbf1003c38ccdc02b571e01a75d890c82 upstream.

When I tried to compile tools/perf from the top directory with the -C
option, the O= option didn't work correctly if I passed a relative path:

  $ make O=BUILD -C tools/perf/
  make: Entering directory '/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
  ../scripts/Makefile.include:4: *** O=/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/BUILD does not exist.  Stop.
  make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf'

The O= directory existence check failed because the check script ran in
the build target directory instead of the directory where I ran the make
command.

To fix that, once change directory to $(PWD) and check O= directory,
since the PWD is set to where the make command runs.

Fixes: c883122acc0d ("perf tools: Let O= makes handle relative paths")
