2007-10-20powerpc: Remove obsolete prototypeJulio M. Merino Vidal
The include/asm-powerpc/paca.h file has a prototype for a function that does not exist any more; its name is setup_boot_paca. This function was removed in commit 4ba99b97dadd35b9ce1438b2bc7c992a4a14a8b1, so its prototype should have been removed at that time too. Signed-off-by: Julio M.

2007-10-19Linux Kernel MarkersMathieu Desnoyers
The marker activation functions sits in kernel/marker.c. A hash table is used to keep track of the registered probes and armed markers, so the markers within a newly loaded module that should be active can be activated at module load time. marker_query has been removed. marker_get_first, marker_get_next and marker_release should be used as iterators on the markers.

2007-10-19Combine instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentationMathieu Desnoyers
Quoting Randy: "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file, 20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into 20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing. However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES, and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."
