But only 'tools/perf/arch/$(host platform)' will be built, in our case,
we should built the unwind-libunwind-$(arch) as long as we have
the remote libunwind libraries. So, I think there's a conflict in the
existing build script and not easy to 'put them under arch'. That's why
I choose a complex way in my previous patch.

Do you have some suggestions?
