[PATCH 1/2] oprofile: Add HAVE_OPROFILE_NMI_TIMER

HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI is used for two things - the oprofile NMI timer
and the hardlockup detector.

Create HAVE_OPROFILE_NMI_TIMER so an architecture can select them
separately. On ppc64 we want to add the hardlockup detector, but not
the oprofile NMI timer fallback.
