The bugfix was about the case where there was no change between the bad and good commit with respect to the given pathspec, so I suspect your case was irrelevant.

Your case probably was coming from that you originally suspected one of the commits that touch tools/perf was a culprit, but because that initial suspicion was wrong, bisection didn't find anything useful.
