kbuild: sparse needs CF not CHECKFLAGS

Documentation/sparse.txt tells to use:

    make C=2 CHECKFLAGS="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__"

However, this still doesn't enable endian checks. The correct syntax is:

    make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__"

This documentation bug was introduced by the following commit:

	kbuild: clarify "make C=" build option

	Clarify the use of "make C=" in the top-level Makefile, and fix a
	typo in the Documentation file.

This `typo' was not a typo, as `CF' had been introduced much earlier, by:

    commit 7b49bb9a

	[PATCH] kbuild: CF=<arguments> passes arguments to sparse

	Allows to add to sparse arguments without mutilating makefiles - just
	pass CF=<arguments> and they will be added to CHECKFLAGS.

The optional make variable CHECKFLAGS can be used to pass arguments to sparse.

These checks are disabled by default as they generate a host of warnings.
