It looks somewhat weird that you can enable TUNE_CELL on little
endian systems, so let's disable this option with CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN.

 I first thought that it might be better to make this option depend
 on PPC_CELL instead ... but I guess it's a bad idea to depend a
 CPU option on a platform option? Alternatively, would it make
 sense to make it depend on (GENERIC_CPU || CELL_CPU) instead?
Hmm, it's a little backward, but I think it would be fine, and less confusing
for users. Both PS3 and Cell select PPC_CELL, so it would work in both those
cases.
