 create mode 100644 arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_callchain.c

These commits implement callchain support for perf_counters on
powerpc.  They have been acked by Ben Herrenschmidt and I have asked
him to pull them into his powerpc-next branch.  It would be good if
you could pull them into the tip tree on some suitable branch so they
get tested together with the other perf_counter changes that are
pending for the 2.6.32 merge window.

Thanks,
Paul.
