[OE-core] [PATCH 0/2] oprofile: enable 'operf' perf_events mode

[tom.zanussi at linux.intel.com]

From: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi at linux.intel.com>

This patchset fixes oprofile-0.9.8 so that it finds perf_events and
configures accordingly to enable 'operf' and not just 'legacy oprofile'

I've added a new section on operf to the Yocto Tracing and Profiling Guide'
(just the wiki version for now, until I can submit a patch for the official
Guide):

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Tracing_and_Profiling#operf

I've tested this on real hardware (x86 crownbay), and build-tested on the
other arches (powerpc didn't build due to YOCTO bug #3717, but that's not
a regression).

The following changes since commit cfb082961a6c9ac3d65738031c4071210529cd07:

  bitbake: build.py: Dump out performance data of individual tasks (2013-01-28 14:49:05 +0000)
