[GIT PULL] oprofile updates for v2.6.37

[Robert Richter]

Ingo,

please pull for tip/perf/core:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rric/oprofile.git core

The main part here is the generalization of the perf event backend
(currently arm and sh archs). Patches are for v2.6.37.

I did already a merge with tip/perf/core, so it should merge without
conflicts.

There are still my oprofile x86 updates pending (mainly AMD IBS) that
require my APIC patches to be applied to tip. As soon as they are in
tip I will update the oprofile tree and send a further pull request.

Thanks,

-Robert
