[PATCH] pxa168 and pxa930 build fix - plat-pxa/pmu.c dependent on ARCH_PXA for IRQ_PMU

Hi Eric,

For the RealView boards, we take approach number (1). This is largely for two
reasons:

1.) The PMU IRQ doesn't have a consistent naming scheme
2.) SMP RealView platforms need to have an extra resource in the
    platform_device for each CPU.

However, looking at the PXA168 description and the perf-events code,
I don't think we support the PMU anyway [see init_hw_perf_events in
arch/arm/kernel/perf_event.c]. If the PMU present is accessible in the
same way as one of the other supported PMUs, then it would be easy to
add it to the perf-events code. Otherwise, a new PMU driver will need
to be written if people want to use it.

Without access to a TRM, I can't tell whether or not supporting the PMU
is trivial, so I guess we go with option (3) for the time being.

In the future I reckon PMU devices will be memory-mapped and live inside
components other than the CPU. PMU registration will then be highly SoC-specific.
Perf events doesn't yet support any of this, so it depends how future-proof you
want to be!
