Subject[PATCH 2.6.12-mm1] perfctr: handle non-OF ppc32 platforms
In ppc32 kernels configured without Open Firmware support
(typical for embedded systems), perfctr causes a linkage
error due to unconditional references to OF querying functions.

This patch fixes that by stubbing out the offending code
when OF is absent. There are already fallbacks in place in
case OF fails, so things (core frequency detection) still work,
at least for supported CPU types.

Fixes a problem originally reported for perfctr-2.6.x by
Jean-Christophe Dubois.
