linux-yocto/3.10: fix long perf compile times

perf's builtin-sched.c triggers extremly long build times on some
architectures due to gcc 4.7+ var-tracking functionality.

To fix this, we can cherry pick the 3.12 commit:

  f36f83f94 [perf sched: Move struct perf_sched definition out of cmd_sched()]

With this change build times are reduced from 15 to 20 minutes for qemuarm to:

  real    2m19.940s
  user    1m35.438s
  sys     0m11.165s

For kernel's that are not carrying this patch, the following can be added
to the perf recipe to also fix the issue:
