[PATCH] enable cpu profiling

It looks like cpu profiling (eg. booting the kernel with profile=2)
has not worked for quite a while in Xen.  I realize that with steal
time and lost ticks the profile samples won't add up to 100%, but
getting some general idea of what's going on is probably better than
nothing.

This patch simply calls profile_tick() from timer_interrupt().
