Removing remainings of oprofile_timer_exit() completly.
Signed-off-by: NRobert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

The legacy x86 nmi watchdog code was removed with the implementation
of the perf based nmi watchdog. This broke Oprofile's nmi timer
mode. To run nmi timer mode we relied on a continuous ticking nmi
source which the nmi watchdog provided. The nmi tick was no longer
available and current watchdog can not be used anymore since it runs
with very long periods in the range of seconds. This patch
reimplements the nmi timer mode using a perf counter nmi source.

V2:
* removing pr_info()
* fix undefined reference to `__udivdi3' for 32 bit build
* fix section mismatch of .cpuinit.data:nmi_timer_cpu_nb
* removed nmi timer setup in arch/x86
* implemented function stubs for op_nmi_init/exit()
* made code more readable in oprofile_init()

V3:
* fix architectural initialization in oprofile_init()
* fix CONFIG_OPROFILE_NMI_TIMER dependencies

This patch is a rework of the hwsampler oprofile implementation that
has been applied recently. Now there are less non-architectural
changes. The only changes are:

* introduction of oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample(), and
* removal of section attributes of oprofile_timer_init/_exit().

To setup hwsampler for oprofile we need to modify start()/stop()
callbacks and additional hwsampler control files in oprofilefs. We do
not reinitialize the timer or hwsampler mode by restarting calling
init/exit() anymore, instead hwsampler_running is used to switch the
mode directly in oprofile_hwsampler_start/_stop(). For locking reasons
there is also hwsampler_file that reflects the value in oprofilefs.

The overall diffstat of the oprofile s390 hwsampler implemenation
shows the low impact to non-architectural code:

OProfile is enhanced to export all files for controlling System z's
hardware sampling, and to invoke hwsampler exported functions to
initialize and use System z's hardware sampling.

The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports
following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup
succeeded:

A new directory for hardware sampling based files

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/

The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files
to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler

to modify the actual sampling rate

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval

to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages)

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks

The following files are read only and show
the possible minimum sampling rate

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval

the possible maximum sampling rate

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval

The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it
can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel
oops.

Applied with following changes:
* whitespace changes in Makefile and timer_int.c

Oprofile counters are setup when profiling is disabled. Thus, writing
to oprofilefs has no immediate effect. Changes are updated only after
oprofile is reenabled.

To keep userland and kernel states synchronized, we now allow
configuration of oprofile only if profiling is disabled.  In this case
it checks if the profiler is running and then disables write access to
oprofilefs by returning -EBUSY. The change should be backward
compatible with current oprofile userland daemon.

Oprofile is currently broken on systems running with NOHZ enabled.
A maximum of 1 tick is accounted via the timer_hook if a cpu sleeps
for a longer period of time. This does bad things to the percentages
in the profiler output. To solve this problem convert oprofile to
use a restarting hrtimer instead of the timer_hook.

This patch renames timeout_jiffies into an oprofile specific name. The
macro MULTIPLEXING_TIMER_DEFAULT is changed too.

Also, since this variable is controlled using oprofilefs, its
definition is moved to oprofile_files.c.

The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing feature
enables OProfile to gather more events than counters are provided by
the hardware. This is realized by switching between events at an user
specified time interval.

A new file (/dev/oprofile/time_slice) is added for the user to specify
the timer interval in ms. If the number of events to profile is higher
than the number of hardware counters available, the patch will
schedule a work queue that switches the event counter and re-writes
the different sets of values into it. The switching mechanism needs to
be implemented for each architecture to support multiplexing. This
patch only implements AMD CPU support, but multiplexing can be easily
extended for other models and architectures.

There are follow-on patches that rework parts of this patch.

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.

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!
