Now that synchronize_rcu() waits for preempt-disable regions of code
in addition to explicitly marked RCU read-side critical sections,
synchronize_rcu() can be used in place of synchronize_sched(). This
commit therefore makes that change.

Use a per-cpu 'wd_enabled' boolean and a global atomic_t count
of watchdog NMI enabled cpus which is set to '-1' if something
is wrong with the watchdog and it can't be used.

It all lives in the oprofile support code currently and we will need
to share this stuff with NMI watchdog and perf_counter support.

We use clock cycle counter, adjusted to HZ.
This can be extended to sun4v based processors as well, as they
also have a proper overflow interrupt facility for the performance
counters.

This patch adds profiling support to the sparc architecture. It is a
copy of the sparc64 implementation.
