linux-tools and linux-cloud-tools for ppa mainline kernels

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd'

# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
Release: 22.04

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname'

# apt-cache policy linux-headers-5.19.5-051905_5.19.5-051905.202208291036_all.deb linux-headers-5.19.5-051905-generic_5.19.5-051905.202208291036_amd64.deb linux-image-unsigned-5.19.5-051905-generic_5.19.5-051905.202208291036_amd64.deb linux-modules-5.19.5-051905-generic_5.19.5-051905.202208291036_amd64.deb^C

3) What you expected to happen

I expect cpupower and perf to be present also for ppa mainline kernels. It has been bothering me for a while now that it is not part of what is built.

4) What happened instead

$ sudo perf stat -a -e power/energy-pkg/,power/energy-cores/,cycles -I 1000 sleep 1000
WARNING: perf not found for kernel 5.19.5-051905

  You may need to install the following packages for this specific kernel:
    linux-tools-5.19.5-051905-generic
    linux-cloud-tools-5.19.5-051905-generic

  You may also want to install one of the following packages to keep up to date:
    linux-tools-generic
    linux-cloud-tools-generic

$ sudo cpupower
WARNING: cpupower not found for kernel 5.19.5-051905

  You may need to install the following packages for this specific kernel:
    linux-tools-5.19.5-051905-generic
    linux-cloud-tools-5.19.5-051905-generic

  You may also want to install one of the following packages to keep up to date:
    linux-tools-generic
    linux-cloud-tools-generic

Would be very useful if these tools was present also for mainline ppa kernels.
