oprofile: remove double ring buffering 

oprofile used a double buffer scheme for its cpu event buffer
to avoid races on reading with the old locked ring buffer.

But that is obsolete now with the new ring buffer, so simply
use a single buffer. This greatly simplifies the code and avoids
a lot of sample drops on large runs, especially with call graph.

Based on suggestions from Steven Rostedt

For stable kernels from v2.6.32, but not earlier.

#define OP_BUFFER_FLAGS 0
/*
* Read and write access is using spin locking. Thus, writing to the
* buffer by NMI handler (x86) could occur also during critical
* sections when reading the buffer. To avoid this, there are 2
* buffers for independent read and write access. Read access is in
* process context only, write access only in the NMI handler. If the
* read buffer runs empty, both buffers are swapped atomically. There
* is potentially a small window during swapping where the buffers are
* disabled and samples could be lost.
*
* Using 2 buffers is a little bit overhead, but the solution is clear
* and does not require changes in the ring buffer implementation. It
* can be changed to a single buffer solution when the ring buffer
* access is implemented as non-locking atomic code.
