Subject: [PATCH] Updated: Reworked Cell OProfile: SPU mutex lock fix

Sorry, looks like my mailer mangled the file.

This is a reworked patch to fix the SPU data storage.  Currently, the 
SPU escape sequences and program counter data is being added directly 
into the kernel buffer without holding the buffer_mutex lock.  This 
patch changes how the data is stored.  A new function,
oprofile_add_value, is added into the oprofile driver to allow adding
generic data to the per cpu buffers.  This enables a series of calls
to the oprofile_add_value to enter the needed SPU escape sequences 
and SPU program data into the kernel buffer via the per cpu buffers
without any additional processing. The oprofile_add_value function is
generic so it could be used by other architecures as well provided
the needed postprocessing was added to opreport.

Finally, this patch backs out the changes previously added to the 
oprofile generic code for handling the architecture specific 
ops.sync_start and ops.sync_stop that allowed the architecture
to skip the per CPU buffer creation.
