oprofile: re-add force_arch_perfmon option
This re-adds the force_arch_perfmon option that was in the original arch perfmon patchkit. Originally this was rejected in favour of a generalized perfmon=name option, but it turned out implementing the later in a reliable way is hard (and it would have been easy to crash the kernel if a user gets it wrong) But now Atom and Core i7 support being readded a user would need to update their oprofile userland to beyond 0.9.4 to use oprofile again on Atom or Core i7. To avoid this problem readd the force_arch_perfmon option. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
