No, it should already be changed now, because the code is also needed
for readprofile. CONFIG_PROFILING should enable the generic profiling
code here, even if CONFIG_OPROFILE is not set.
Note that the identical code on i386 is always compiled in, regardless
of CONFIG_PROFILING and CONFIG_OPROFILE.

Enable basic profiling code on s390 depending on CONFIG_PROFILING,
not CONFIG_OPROFILE.
