perf_counter: Detect debugfs location
If "/sys/kernel/debug" is not a debugfs mount point, search for the debugfs filesystem in /proc/mounts, but also allows the user to specify '--debugfs-dir=blah' or set the environment variable: 'PERF_DEBUGFS_DIR' Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> [ also made it probe "/debug" by default ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <20090721181629.GA3094@redhat.com>
