Subject: [PATCH 6/7] drivers: oprofile: Avoids building driver from direct make command

Creates new Makefile to avoid building driver if
'make drivers/oprofile/' is called directly.

This driver is usually built from arch/$ARCH and seems to have
no meaning building alone.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Is that intentional or bogus?
