Reverting commit 1a960b40 for the main
branch. Multiplexing will be tracked on a separate feature branch.

Conflicts:

    arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c

This patch introduces multiplexing support for the Oprofile kernel
module. It basically adds a new function pointer in oprofile_operator
allowing each architecture to supply its callback to switch between
different sets of event when the timer expires. Userspace tools can
modify the time slice through /dev/oprofile/time_slice.

It also modifies the number of counters exposed to the userspace through
/dev/oprofile. For example, the number of counters for AMD CPUs are
changed to 32 and multiplexed in the sets of 4.

Need to enable/disable all the counters instead of just counter 0.

This affects all cpus with family=6, including i386/core.  Usual symptom:
only counter 0 provides samples.  Other counters don't produce samples.

Incorporates the new performance counter reservation system in oprofile.
Also cleans up a lot of the initialization code.  The code original zero'd
out every register associated with performance counters regardless if those
registers were used or not.  This causes issues with the nmi watchdog.
Now oprofile tries to reserve registers and gives up if it can't get them.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
