Merge tag 'oprofile-removal-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/linux
Pull oprofile and dcookies removal from Viresh Kumar:
"Remove oprofile and dcookies support
The 'oprofile' user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support
any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to
the perf interfaces.
The dcookies stuff is only used by the oprofile code. Now that
oprofile's support is getting removed from the kernel, there is no
need for dcookies as well.
Remove kernel's old oprofile and dcookies support"
