[PATCH] sleep profiling

Browse Source 
Implement prof=sleep profiling.  TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE sleeps will be taken
as a profile hit, and every millisecond spent sleeping causes a profile-hit
for the call site that initiated the sleep.

Sample readprofile output on i386:

   306 ps2_sendbyte                               1.3973
   432 call_usermodehelper_keys                   1.9548
   484 ps2_command                                0.6453
   790 __driver_attach                            4.7879
  1593 msleep                                    44.2500
  3976 sync_buffer                               64.1290
  4076 do_lookup                                 12.4648
  8587 sync_page                                122.6714
 20820 total                                      0.0067

(NOTE: architectures need to check whether get_wchan() can be called from
deep within the wakeup path.)

akpm: we need to mark more functions __sched.  lock_sock(), msleep(), others..

akpm: the contention in do_lookup() is a surprise.  Presumably doing disk
reads for directory contents while holding i_mutex.
