Well, in my particular development system I have no udev, so I had to
manually do "mknod". Perf syscall works out of the box. Of course one
could say it's my problem...

Of course.

The idea I'm following now is to make the dynamic clock framework even
more generic, so there could be a clock associated with an arbitrary
struct file * (the perf syscall is getting one with
anon_inode_getfile()). I don't know how to get this done yet, but I'll
give it a try and report.
