Nothing includes memprof.h. Nothing uses the macros it defines. It seems
it is just a remnant of the proposed memprof functionality, which got
dropped before the Tilera architecture got added to the tree. This
header can safely be removed.

0) Dropping the memprof functionality was briefly discussed in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/26/606 .

1) Tested only by using various git commands on the (history of the)
tree.
