I think those patches are good, but when I started working on this
issue, I also discovered that oprofile looks at /usr/include/linux by
default to find out whether perf is supported or not in the kernel.
Which obviously doesn't make sense in cross-compilation.
I've just pushed at
http://git.free-electrons.com/users/thomas-petazzoni/buildroot/commit/?h=oprofile-ppc-fix&id=dda400c3f798ba49b1b638f927b3089a9df24105
the work I started some time ago, which was unfinished. Note that I
don't ask you to also fix those issues, I just thought it would be good
mentioning these other potential problems.
Thomas
