Subject: [PATCH 13/21] 2.6.19 perfmon2 : common core functions

This patch the core of perfmon2.

The core consists of:
	- back-end to most system calls
	- notification message queue management
	- sampling buffer allocation
	- support functions for sampling
	- context allocation and destruction
	- user level notification
	- perfmon2 initialization
	- permission checking
