arch: remove tile port
The Tile architecture port was added by Chris Metcalf in 2010, and maintained until early 2018 when he orphaned it due to his departure from Mellanox, and nobody else stepped up to maintain it. The product line is still around in the form of the BlueField SoC, but no longer uses the Tile architecture. There are also still products for sale with Tile-GX SoCs, notably the Mikrotik CCR router family. The products all use old (linux-3.3) kernels with lots of patches and won't be upgraded by their manufacturers. There have been efforts to port both OpenWRT and Debian to these, but both projects have stalled and are very unlikely to be continued in the future. Given that we are reasonably sure that nobody is still using the port with an upstream kernel any more, it seems better to remove it now while the port is in a good shape than to let it bitrot for a few years first.

- * "Lazy" TLB mode is entered when we are switching to a kernel task,
- * which borrows the mm of the previous task. The goal of this
- * optimization is to avoid having to install a new page table. On
- * early x86 machines (where the concept originated) you couldn't do
- * anything short of a full page table install for invalidation, so
- * handling a remote TLB invalidate required doing a page table
- * re-install. Someone clearly decided that it was silly to keep
- * doing this while in "lazy" TLB mode, so the optimization involves
- * installing the swapper page table instead the first time one
- * occurs, and clearing the cpu out of cpu_vm_mask, so the cpu running
- * the kernel task doesn't need to take any more interrupts. At that
- * point it's then necessary to explicitly reinstall it when context
- * switching back to the original mm.
- *
- * On Tile, we have to do a page-table install whenever DMA is enabled,
- * so in that case lazy mode doesn't help anyway. And more generally,
- * we have efficient per-page TLB shootdown, and don't expect to spend
- * that much time in kernel tasks in general, so just leaving the
- * kernel task borrowing the old page table, but handling TLB
- * shootdowns, is a reasonable thing to do. And importantly, this
- * lets us use the hypervisor's internal APIs for TLB shootdown, which
- * means we don't have to worry about having TLB shootdowns blocked
- * when Linux is disabling interrupts; see the page migration code for
- * an example of where it's important for TLB shootdowns to complete
- * even when interrupts are disabled at the Linux level.
