Hi,
Here's a patchset to make prof_counter use percpu area infrastructure.
Right now, prof_counter is a NR_CPUS array which gets modified every
local timer interrupt causing cacheline ping-pong for i386, ppc, x86_64 and
sparc arches. Other arches have made this var truly per-cpu.
This one's for i386 (voyager included).
Thanks,
Kiran
