From 1b48142a809ee03f48979fad647245dbe0ce423a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaro Koskinen Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2014 18:10:25 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: oprofile: Enable backtrace on timer-based profiling Allow unsupported CPU types to use backtrace with timer-based profiling. Some CPUs (notably OCTEON) lack architecture-specific oprofile driver. In such case oprofile can fallback to timer-based mode, and arch code can still provide the backtrace functionality. So just set up the backtrace hook always.
