    Fix Blackfin HARDWARE_PM support · 7d2284b0
    Mathieu Desnoyers authored
    This patch restores the blackfin Hardware Performance Monitor Profiling
    support that was killed by the combining of instrumentation menus in
    commit 09cadedb.
    
    Since there seems to be no good reason to behave differently from other
    architectures, it now automatically selects the hardware performance
    counters whenever the profiling is activated.
    
    mach-common/irqpanic.c: pm_overflow calls pm_overflow_handler which is
    in oprofile/op_model_bf533.c.  I doubt that setting HARDWARE_PM as "m"
    will work at all, since the pm_overflow_handler should be in the core
    kernel image because it is called by irqpanic.c.
    
    Therefore, I change HARDWARE_PM from a tristate to a bool.
    
    The whole arch/$(ARCH)/oprofile/ is built depending on CONFIG_OPROFILE. Since
    part of the HARDWARE_PM support files sits in this directory, it makes sense to
    also depend on OPROFILE, not only PROFILING. Since OPROFILE already depends on
    PROFILING, it is correct to only depend on OPROFILE only.
    
    Thanks to Adrian Bunk for finding this bug and providing an initial
    patch.
