[PATCH] oprofile: Fix the hang while offline the cpu

[Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@ti.com>]

The kernel build with CONFIG_OPROFILE and CPU_HOTPLUG enabled.
The oprofile is initialised using system timer in absence of hardware
counters supports. Oprofile isn't started from userland.

In this setup while doing a CPU offline the kernel hangs in infinite
for loop inside lock_hrtimer_base() function

This happens because as part of oprofile_cpu_notify(, it tries to
stop an hrtimer which was never started. These per-cpu hrtimers
are started when the oprfile is started.
	echo 1	> /dev/oprofile/enable

This patch fix this issue by adding a state variable so that
these hrtimer start/stop is only attempted when oprofile is
started
