[PATCH 3/9] ARM: pmu: remove unused reservation mechanism

Will Deacon will.deacon at arm.com
Fri Aug 10 13:36:29 EDT 2012


The PMU reservation mechanism was originally intended to allow OProfile
and perf-events to co-ordinate over access to the CPU PMU. Since then,
OProfile for ARM has moved to using perf as its backend, so the
reservation code is no longer used.

This patch removes the reservation code for the CPU PMU on ARM.
