SubjectRe: [2.6.24 patch] restore blackfin HARDWARE_PM support

I don't think so.

There was an out of tree patch that was floating around that gave people a sys
or proc interface to the hardware registers - since oprofile doesn't work
that well on a bash-less system.

I don't think I will have time to look at the patch over the weekend, but will
do after Jan 1.
