Subject: [PATCH] Fix oprofile configuration breakage
Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:53:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071206165319.GA21553@linux-mips.org> (raw)
The cleanup 09cadedbdc01f1a4bea1f427d4fb4642eaa19da9 broke the oprofile
configuration for MIPS by allowing oprofile support to be built for
kernel models where oprofile doesn't have a chance in hell to work.
Just a dependecy list on a number of architectures is - surprise - broken
and should as per past discussions probably in most considered to be
broken in most cases. So I introduce a dependency for the oprofile
configuration on ARCH_SUPPORTS_OPROFILE.
Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

Since we're already in -rc4 I try to keep things minimally intrusive and
use ARCH_SUPPORTS_OPROFILE only for MIPS for now instead of touching a
dozen architectures.
