Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

Add support for XLR and XLS processors in MIPS Oprofile code. These
processors are multi-threaded and have two counters per core. Each
counter can track either all the events in the core (global mode),
or events in just one thread.
We use the counters in the global mode, and use only the first thread
in each core to handle the configuration etc.

Loongson 1B is a 32-bit SoC designed by Institute of Computing Technology
(ICT) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), which implements the
MIPS32 release 2 instruction set.
[ralf@linux-mips.org: But which is not strictly a MIPS32 compliant device
which also is why it identifies itself with the Legacy Vendor ID in the
PrID register. When applying the patch I shoveled some code around to
keep things in alphabetical order and avoid forward declarations.]

Stack unwinding is done by code examination. For kernelspace, the
already existing unwind function is utilized that uses kallsyms to
quickly find the beginning of functions. For userspace a new function
was added that examines code at and before the pc.

In Loongson2f IP6 is shared by bonito and perfcounters so we need to avoid
do_IRQ for perfcounter when the interrupt is from bonito.

Unify the naming method between kernel and the user-space oprofile tool.
Because loongson is used instead of godson in most of the places, we agreed
to use loongson instead, which will simplify future maintenance.

This kernel support is needed by the user-space tool:oprofile to profile
linux kernel or applications via loongson2 performance counters. you can
enable this driver via CONFIG_OPROFILE = y or m.
On Loongson2 there are two performance counters, each one can count 16
events respectively. when anyone of the performance counter overflows, an
interrupt will be generated and is routed to the IRQ MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE + 6.

This patch unexports the null_perf_irq() symbol, and simultaneously
makes this function static.

The latest draft version of the MIPS Architecture Specification extends the
6 bit event field by adding a directly adjacent 4-bit EventExt field for a
total of 10 bits.

VSMP kernels will split the available performance counters between the two
processors / cores. But don't do this when we're not on a VSMP system ...

Quoting Randy:
"It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file,
20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into
20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing.
However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make
_one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES,
and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."
