[PATCH] MIPS: remove unused setup_profiling_timer function

From: Anthony Iliopoulos

Date: Thu Aug 20 2026 - 08:52:52 EST


setup_profiling_timer() is not used by any code at this point. Since a
default weak implementation exists, there is no need to keep this
arch-specific definition around. Remove it along with the now-redundant
profile header includes.
