Allow unsupported CPU types to use backtrace with timer-based profiling.
Some CPUs (notably OCTEON) lack architecture-specific oprofile driver. In
such case oprofile can fallback to timer-based mode, and arch code can
still provide the backtrace functionality. So just set up the backtrace
hook always.

Loongson-3 has two groups of performance counters, they are 4 sub-
registers of CP0's REG25. This patch add oprofile support.
REG25, sel 0: Perf Control of group 0;
REG25, sel 1: Perf Counter of group 0;
REG25, sel 2: Perf Control of group 1;
REG25, sel 3: Perf Counter of group 1.

The M5150 core is a 32-bit MIPS RISC which implements the
MIPS Architecture Release-5 in a 5-stage pipeline.
In addition, it includes the MIPS Architecture Virtualization Module
that enables virtualization of operating systems,
which provides a scalable, trusted, and secure execution environment.

o Move current_cpu_type() to a separate header file
o #ifdefing on supported CPU types lets modern GCC know that certain
code in callers may be discarded ideally turning current_cpu_type() into
a function returning a constant.
o Use current_cpu_type() rather than direct access to struct cpuinfo_mips.

Add support for XLR and XLS processors in MIPS Oprofile code. These
processors are multi-threaded and have two counters per core. Each
counter can track either all the events in the core (global mode),
or events in just one thread.
We use the counters in the global mode, and use only the first thread
in each core to handle the configuration etc.

[ralf@linux-mips.org: But which is not strictly a MIPS32 compliant device
which also is why it identifies itself with the Legacy Vendor ID in the
PrID register. When applying the patch I shoveled some code around to
keep things in alphabetical order and avoid forward declarations.]

This kernel support is needed by the user-space tool:oprofile to profile
linux kernel or applications via loongson2 performance counters. you can
enable this driver via CONFIG_OPROFILE = y or m.
On Loongson2 there are two performance counters, each one can count 16
events respectively. when anyone of the performance counter overflows, an
interrupt will be generated and is routed to the IRQ MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE + 6.

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.

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!
