-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------

commit a0e3e70243f5b270bc3eca718f0a9fa5e6b8262e upstream.

Backport for stable kernel v2.6.32.y to v2.6.36.y.

Current oprofile's x86 callgraph support may trigger page faults
throwing the BUG_ON(in_nmi()) message below. This patch fixes this by
using the same nmi-safe copy-from-user code as in perf.
