[CELL] oprofile: add support to OProfile for profiling CELL BE SPUs

From: Maynard Johnson <mpjohn@us.ibm.com>

This patch updates the existing arch/powerpc/oprofile/op_model_cell.c
to add in the SPU profiling capabilities.  In addition, a 'cell' subdirectory
was added to arch/powerpc/oprofile to hold Cell-specific SPU profiling code.
Exports spu_set_profile_private_kref and spu_get_profile_private_kref which
are used by OProfile to store private profile information in spufs data
structures.

Also incorporated several fixes from other patches (rrn).  Check pointer
returned from kzalloc.  Eliminated unnecessary cast.  Better error
handling and cleanup in the related area.  64-bit unsigned long parameter
was being demoted to 32-bit unsigned int and eventually promoted back to
unsigned long.

+ * The hardware uses an LFSR counting sequence to determine when to capture
+ * the SPU PCs.	 An LFSR sequence is like a puesdo random number sequence
+ * where each number occurs once in the sequence but the sequence is not in
+ * numerical order. The SPU PC capture is done when the LFSR sequence reaches
+ * the last value in the sequence.  Hence the user specified value N
+ * corresponds to the LFSR number that is N from the end of the sequence.
+ *
+ * To avoid the time to compute the LFSR, a lookup table is used.  The 24 bit
+ * LFSR sequence is broken into four ranges.  The spacing of the precomputed
+ * values is adjusted in each range so the error between the user specifed
+ * number (N) of events between samples and the actual number of events based
+ * on the precomputed value will be les then about 6.2%.  Note, if the user
+ * specifies N < 2^16, the LFSR value that is 2^16 from the end will be used.
+ * This is to prevent the loss of samples because the trace buffer is full.
+ *
+ *	   User specified N		     Step between	   Index in
+ *					 precomputed values	 precomputed
+ *								    table
+ * 0		    to	2^16-1			----		      0
+ * 2^16	    to	2^16+2^19-1		2^12		    1 to 128
+ * 2^16+2^19	    to	2^16+2^19+2^22-1	2^15		  129 to 256
+ * 2^16+2^19+2^22  to	2^24-1			2^18		  257 to 302
+ *
+ *
+ * For example, the LFSR values in the second range are computed for 2^16,
+ * 2^16+2^12, ... , 2^19-2^16, 2^19 and stored in the table at indicies
+ * 1, 2,..., 127, 128.
+ *
+ * The 24 bit LFSR value for the nth number in the sequence can be
+ * calculated using the following code:
+ *
+ * #define size 24
+ * int calculate_lfsr(int n)
+ * {
+ *	int i;
+ *	unsigned int newlfsr0;
+ *	unsigned int lfsr = 0xFFFFFF;

+ *		(((lfsr >> (size - 1 - 6)) & 1) ^
