Since oprofile is a sysdev, its suspend/resume methods are called with
interrupts disabled.  Using a mutex (which might sleep) in this atomic
context is not safe.

Since these methods are already called in atomic context, simply
remove the locking in the suspend/resume methods.

Found using lockdep on OMAP3 (Cortex-A8)

It isn't a sysdev anymore.  Suggest you take a look at the ARM tree once
in a while.

Indeed, I see it is fixed already there.

Sorry for the noise,
