The latest draft version of the MIPS Architecture Specification extends the
6 bit event field by adding a directly adjacent 4-bit EventExt field for a
total of 10 bits.

VSMP kernels will split the available performance counters between the two
processors / cores. But don't do this when we're not on a VSMP system ...

Quoting Randy:
"It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file,
20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into
20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing.
However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make
_one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES,
and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

This did cause oprofile to fail on non-multithreaded systems with more
than 2 processors such as the BCM1480.

nmi_create_files() in arch/i386/oprofile/nmi_int.c depends on
model->num_counters (number of performance counters) being less than 10.
While this is currently the case, it's too clever by half.
Other archs aren't quite as clever: they assume 100. I suggest to
normalize them all to 1000.

The modpost uses a whitelist for commonly used suffix on checking the
section mismatch. Adding "_ops" suffix to op_modex_xxx get rid of
this modpost warning.

Nothing exciting; Linux just didn't know it yet so this is most adding
a value to a case statement.

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!
