By deleting unused code, this makes perfmon irq handling more efficient,

* remove unused pfm_install_alt_pmu_interrupt()

I have not problem with the patch except maybe for those two functions.
How do you know they are not used?
Have you checked the VTUNE open-source driver?

I was hoping some IA-64 person could speak authoritatively on the subject :)
