Yeah, I guess it got lost.  After looking at both patches, I see the  
different approaches.  I think I'd vote for the older patch, since it  
also solves some SMP issues that will crop up when the dual-core 8572  
comes out.  In fact, it's similar to this patch: http:// 
patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=4012

Oi.  Ok, I'm going to update and resend that patch in just a second  
(Ok, this took longer than I thought, due to the lwsync patch I sent  
out being required).  I like Vitaly's patch, but the one I sent  
cleans up some early design mistakes I made in the original ppc32  
oprofile code.
