Current util/string.c includes headers in this order: string.h, util.h
But this causes build error because __USE_GNU definition
is needed for strndup() definition like this,
% make -j
touch .perf.dev.null
CC util/string.o
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
util/string.c: In function ‘argv_split’:
util/string.c:171: error: implicit declaration of function ‘strndup’
util/string.c:171: error: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strndup’

So this patch swaps order of including headers.
util.h defines _GNU_SOURCE, and /usr/include/features.h defines __USE_GNU as 1
if _GNU_SOURCE is defined.

Thanks, I've queued it as I have the same problem and I'm
about to send a perf/core queue.

Sorry about that and thanks for queueing it up, keeping this tempo of
getting patches queued up and pushed up upstream for perf is really nice
inasmuch as we keep it sane, and so far I think it is really being
excellent! :-)
