It was a bit tricky to juggle the Cc lists here, but tile is removed
in patch 06/10
now. As I explained in the cover letter, it was originally planned to be marked
deprecated for a while first, but after some more discussion, nobody could come
up with a reason to keep it any longer. Same thing for mn10300,
blackfin and cris.
