The MANIFEST file is used in the following Makefile targets: $ make tar{,gz,bz2,xz}-src-pkg
to generate an archive that can be used outside the kernel tree. It contains entries that are used for pathspec filtering 'git archive', which ultimately generates the archive. Remove the stale entries (non-existent paths) by running: $ while read l; do file $l; done <tools/perf/MANIFEST | grep ERROR in the toplevel kernel tree.
