You just need to add 'profile=2' to your kernel's command line.  The "2" 
is the default value, and the configure help sais this about it:
This is used to adjust the granularity with which the addresses of
executed instructions get recorded in /proc/profile. But since you enabled
"Kernel profiling support", you must be a kernel hacker and hence you know
what this is about :-)
