2014-10-30arm: perf: factor out callchain codeMark Rutland
The ARM callchain handling code is currently bundled with the ARM PMU management code, despite the two having no dependency on each other. This bundling has the unfortunate property of making callchain handling depend on CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS, even though the callchain handling could be applied to software events in the absence of PMU hardware support. This patch separates the two, placing the callchain handling in perf_callchain.c and making it depend on CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS rather than CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS, enabling callchain recording on kernels built without hardware perf event support.
