Subject: [PATCH v2 23/40] tile: enable sparse checks for get/put_user

Tile currently does not trigger sparse warnings when get_user
causes an illegal assignment across bitwise types.

For example:

__le32 __user *p;
__u32 x;
put_user(x, p);

violates endian-ness rules, but currently does not trigger sparse
warning on tile.

Fix this by adding some dead code.
