Merge tag 'oprofile-removal-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/linux
Pull oprofile and dcookies removal from Viresh Kumar: "Remove oprofile and dcookies support The 'oprofile' user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to the perf interfaces. The dcookies stuff is only used by the oprofile code. Now that oprofile's support is getting removed from the kernel, there is no need for dcookies as well. Remove kernel's old oprofile and dcookies support" * tag 'oprofile-removal-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/linux: fs: Remove dcookies support drivers: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: xtensa: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: x86: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: sparc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: sh: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: s390: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: powerpc: Remove oprofile arch: powerpc: Stop building and using oprofile arch: parisc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: mips: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: microblaze: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: ia64: Remove rest of perfmon support arch: ia64: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: hexagon: Don't select HAVE_OPROFILE arch: arc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: arm: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: alpha: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support

For example, to override I2C bus2:
omap_mux=i2c2_scl.i2c2_scl=0x100,i2c2_sda.i2c2_sda=0x100
- oprofile.timer= [HW]
- Use timer interrupt instead of performance counters

- oprofile.cpu_type= Force an oprofile cpu type
- This might be useful if you have an older oprofile
- userland or if you want common events.
- Format: { arch_perfmon }
- arch_perfmon: [X86] Force use of architectural
- perfmon on Intel CPUs instead of the

- timer: [X86] Force use of architectural NMI
- timer mode (see also oprofile.timer
- for generic hr timer mode)

oops=panic Always panic on oopses. Default is to just kill the
process, but there is a small probability of
deadlocking the machine.
