Nicholas, you can't just enable this code; it will break the build, since there is no lookup_address() symbol on tile.
I'd like to encourage you to look for more substantive kinds of changes to submit to LKML. This one and the last one (adding some underscores to some obsolete symbols) both have ended up costing me some time to look at and figure out what's actually going on, but for no real value. I suspect there may be "janitor" tasks that are more useful if you are looking for small starting points (Google for "linux kernel janitors").
That said I'm going to go ahead and check in the following change which actually does work, now that my attention has been drawn here.
