=============

Can anyone see a problem with any of this . . . or perhaps a suggestion of a better way?
The text suggests it doesn't allow SPU_FS=y with OPROFILE=m, which I think
should be allowed.
Right, good catch. I'll add another OR to the 'default y' and correct the text.
Actually, it makes more sense to do the following:

config OPROFILE_CELL
      bool "OProfile for Cell Broadband Engine"
depends on (SPU_FS = y && OPROFILE = m) || (SPU_FS = y && OPROFILE = y) || (SPU_FS = m && OPROFILE = m)
      default y
      help
Profiling of Cell BE SPUs requires special support enabled by this option.

As I mentioned, I will use CONFIG_OPROFILE_CELL in the arch/powerpc/oprofile/Makefile as follows:
     oprofile-$(CONFIG_OPROFILE_CELL) += op_model_cell.o \
              cell/spu_profiler.o cell/vma_map.o cell/spu_task_sync.o
