Enable hardware perf-events if CPU_HAS_PMU and select
HAVE_OPROFILE if HAVE_PERF_EVENTS. If no hardware support
is present, OProfile will fall back to timer mode.
This patch also removes the old OProfile drivers in favour
of the code implemented by perf.

Make sure that we have access to the performance counters and
that they aren't being used by perf events or anything else.

On Oprofile ARMv7 the PMNC_D bit was set to lower the PMU IRQs
and so to decrease the risk of errata #628216 from appearing.
The effect of setting the PMNC_D bit is that the CCNT counter
is divided by 64, making the program counter events count
inaccurate.
The new OMAP3 r4 cores should have that errata fixed.
The PMNC_D bit should not be set, this patch fixes it.

Add Oprofile kernel support for ARMv7.
Tested on OMAP3430 and OMAP3530 chipsets (Cortex-A8).
