This is a rework of the previously posted set of patches.

Patch 1 is the user level patch to add the SPU events to the user OProfile tool.

Patch 2 is a kernel patch to do code clean up and restructuring to make it easier to add the new SPU event profiling support. This patch makes no functional changes.

Patch 3 is a kernel patch to add the SPU event profiling support.
