This is a reworking of an original patch posted by Aaro Koskinen:
oprofile does not work with PM, because sysdev_suspend() is done with
interrupts disabled and oprofile needs a mutex. Implementing oprofile
as a platform device solves this problem.

Enable hardware perf-events if CPU_HAS_PMU and select

This patch also removes the old OProfile drivers in favour

There are currently two hardware performance monitoring subsystems in
the kernel for ARM: OProfile and perf-events. This creates the
following problems:
1.) Duplicate PMU accessor code. Inevitable code drift may lead to
bugs in one framework that are fixed in the other.
2.) Locking issues. OProfile doesn't reprogram hardware counters
between profiling runs if the events to be monitored have not been
changed. This means that other profiling frameworks cannot use the
counters if OProfile is in use.
3.) Due to differences in the two frameworks, it may not be possible to
compare the results obtained by OProfile with those obtained by perf.
This patch removes the OProfile PMU driver code and replaces it with
calls to perf, therefore solving the issues mentioned above.
The only userspace-visible change is the lack of SCU counter support
for 11MPCore. This is currently unsupported by OProfile userspace tools anyway and therefore shouldn't cause any problems.

The ARM perf-events framework provides support for a number of different
PMUs using struct arm_pmu. The char *name field of this struct can be
used to identify the PMU, but this is cumbersome if used outside of perf.
This patch replaces the name string for a PMU with an enum, which holds
a unique ID for the PMU being represented. This ID can be used to index
an array of names within perf, so no functionality is lost. The presence
of the ID field, allows other kernel subsystems [currently oprofile] to
use their own mappings for the PMU name.

The current PMU infrastructure for ARM requires that the IRQs for the PMU
device are fixed at compile time and are selected based on the ARCH_ or MACH_ flags. This has the disadvantage of tying the Kernel down to a
particular board as far as profiling is concerned.
This patch replaces the compile-time IRQ registration with a runtime mechanism which allows the IRQs to be registered with the framework as
a platform_device.
A further advantage of this change is that there is scope for registering
different types of performance counters in the future by changing the id
of the platform_device and attaching different resources to it.

for ARMv7, and offered as a configuration option on ARMv6.
Enabling this option requires drivers to have the necessary barriers

This patch adds logic to kvm/x86 which allows to mark an
injected exception as reinjected. This allows to remove an
ugly hack from svm_complete_interrupts that prevented
exceptions from being reinjected at all in the nested case.
The hack was necessary because an reinjected exception into
the nested guest could cause a nested vmexit emulation. But
reinjected exceptions must not intercept. The downside of
the hack is that a exception that in injected could get
lost.
This patch fixes the problem and puts the code for it into
generic x86 files because. Nested-VMX will likely have the
same problem and could reuse the code.

When in split mode, instruction relocation and data relocation are not equal.
So far we implemented this mode by reserving a special pseudo-VSID for the
two cases and flushing all PTEs when going into split mode, which is slow.
Unfortunately 32bit Linux and Mac OS X use split mode extensively. So to not
slow down things too much, I came up with a different idea: Mark the split
mode with a bit in the VSID and then treat it like any other segment.
This means we can just flush the shadow segment cache, but keep the PTEs
intact. I verified that this works with ppc32 Linux and Mac OS X 10.4
guests and does speed them up.
