Thomas Petazzoni 09100a3750 libpfm4: needs thread support
Fixes:

  http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/73d736dd3c8a70358ef4b19a63dda46178cf8bf1/

Note that the propagation of the thread dependency to the oprofile
package is a little bit non standard, because oprofile selects libpfm4
only on the PowerPC architecture. So we ensure the thread dependency
is only enforced on PowerPC, and a separate comment is displayed when
thread support is not available, but the PowerPC architecture is used.

OProfile is a system-wide profiler for Linux systems,
capable of profiling all running code at low overhead.
OProfile is released under the GNU GPL.
It consists of a kernel driver and a daemon for collecting
sample data, and several post-profiling tools for turning
data into information.
OProfile leverages the hardware performance counters of the
CPU to enable profiling of a wide variety of interesting
statistics, which can also be used for basic time-spent
profiling. All code is profiled: hardware and software
interrupt handlers, kernel modules, the kernel, shared
libraries, and applications.
