  • Add OProfile support for metag, using the perf backend, and falling back
    to generic timer based sampling if perf counter interrupt support is
    disabled.

    The oprofile code prepends "metag/" to the perf pmu name to give
    "metag/meta2" which is more consistent with other oprofile arch names.

    The backtrace code makes use of for kernel
    backtracing, and a simple frame pointer walk for userland backtracing.
