This reverts commit a6238f2173
Appletalk got some patches to fix up the BLK usage in it in the
network tree, so this removal isn't needed.

For all I know, Appletalk is dead, the only reasonable
use right now would be nostalgia, and that can be served
well enough by old kernels. The code is largely not
in a bad shape, but it still uses the big kernel lock,
and nobody seems motivated to change that.
FWIW, the last release of MacOS that supported Appletalk
was MacOS X 10.5, made in 2007, and it has been abandoned
by Apple with 10.6. Using TCP/IP instead of Appletalk has
been supported since MacOS 7.6, which was released in
1997 and is able to run on most of the legacy hardware.

The newer drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c replaces drivers/misc/cs5535_gpio.c.
The new driver has been in the tree for a little while, and has received
some testing; it's time to mark the old one as deprecated. I'm thinking
removal around 2.6.40 would be good, provided we're not missing critical
functionality in the newer driver.

dabusb driver were conceived as an experimental driver for a test
device. The driver never supported any shipped product, and, while
there were some updates on it in 2003, for an ancient product,
those changes were never submitted upstream.
Also, there's no DocBook for its API, nor any upstream discussion.
So, better to remove it, on .39. If later needed, we may rescue it
from git logs. For now, let's move it to staging.

This is submitted as a staging driver because there is a more generic driver
"on the way" for all these devices and has been for some time. The intent is
that as soon as the general drivers are in the mainstream this one will get
any leftovers integrated and then be dumped. Until this unspecified future
data at least people can actually use their hardware.
As its interface is simply input layer we can do that without pain.

The driver author seems to not worked on this driver since its conversion
from 2.2 to 2.4. Nobody is known to have a stradis hardware for testing. As
it still uses V4L1 API, BKL and probably some other old stuff, someone would
need to work on it to preserve the driver. Instead of investing time and
efforts to keep porting it to work with new API's, it seems better to just
drop the driver.
So, let's move it to drivers/staging and label it to die at 2.6.38, if nobody
cares enough to port parallel port support to gspca or to create a new driver
that uses the same gspca-cpia sub-driver.

cpia driver were re-written inside gspca driver, for USB devices. The only
functionality that were not migrated is the support for parallel port,
as:
1) the developer didn't find any hardware;
2) it doesn't seem important to keep support for a parallel port webcam,
as this is an obsolete technology;
3) the changes at gspca for it to work with parallel port would be very large;
4) this driver still uses BKL.
So, let's move it to drivers/staging and label it to die at 2.6.38, if nobody

This is the Intel SST audio driver.
As compared to the previous versions it has all the printks and other stuff
noted cleaned up and more hardware support. The Aava support is disabled in
this patch (is_aava resolves to 0) because the Aava board detection logic
is not yet upstream.
The driver itself is a combination of a traditional ALSA driver and a
hardware assisted offload driver which can play audio while the processor
is asleep but which can't do all the more interactive stuff.
In the general case most software would use the ALSA interface, but the
other interface is needed for certain classes of use such as music playback
on highly power consumption sensitive devices.
This is going to staging primarily because it depends upon the staging memrar
driver.

Atheros originally had posted a vendor driver to support
the Atheros AR9170 devices, the driver was called otus [1].
The otus driver was staging quality but it, along with
other chipset documentation helped the community do a rewrite
for a proper driver. Johannes Berg did the ar9170 [2] work and
Christian Lamparter then followed up with some final touches
for inclusion upstream.
The original goal behind ar9170 was to match all functionality,
performance, stability and quality against Otus. In the end this
proved quite challenging even with GPLv2 firmware.
Christian then decided to work on a replacement driver with
new enhancements to the GPLv2 firmware. It took 1 year, 5 months,
9 days since this merge of ar9170usb upstream to release carl9170
with upstream inclusion intentions but its now there.
We remove the Otus driver now as the carl9170 driver actually
ends up not only replacing but superseding the staging Otus driver!

This adds DCON support for the OLPC XO. The DCON is found in XO-1 and

AR6003 is a single stream, SDIO based 802.11 chipset from
Atheros optimized for mobile and embedded devices. ath6kl is a
cfg80211 driver for AR6003 and supports both the station and
AP mode of operation.
Station mode supports 802.11 a/b/g/n with HT20 on 2.4/5GHz and
HT40 only on 5GHz. Some of the other features include WPA/WPA2,
WPS, WMM, WMM-PS, and BT coexistence. AP mode can be operated
only in b/g mode with support for a subset of features mentioned
above.
The driver supports cfg80211 but comes with its own set of
wext ioctls which have historically supported some of our
customers with features like BT 3.0 and AP mode of operation.
For further details, please refer to:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath6kl
The driver requires firmware that runs on the chip's network
processor. The majority of it is stored in ROM. The binaries
that are downloaded and executed from RAM are as follows:
1) Patch against the code in ROM for bug fixes and feature
enhancements.
2) Code to copy the data from the OTP region of the memory
into RAM.
3) Calibration file carrying board specific data.
The above files need to be present in the directory
'/lib/firmware/ath6k/AR6003/hw2.0/' for the driver to initialize
the chip upon enumeration. The files can be downloaded from the
link specified at the following location:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath6kl#Download
This driver is only provided in the interim while we work on
the mac80211 replacement, ath6k. Once the mac80211 driver
achieves feature parity with the ath6kl driver, the ath6kl will
be deprecated and removed from staging.

This is a driver for the Cypress West Bridge companion chip. Its
function is analogous to the North/South Bridges of PC environments
applied to embedded devices, in that it expands I/O and storage
capabilities of an embedded processor. The Astoria version, which this
driver applies to, functions as a USB, embedded memory and SDIO
controller. The kernel that this patch was applied to is linux-2.6.35,
although it was tested using the android kernel 2.6.29 running on the
Zoom 2 platform. In this system, it was used primarily as a sideloading
accelerator enabling direct data transfers between a USB host PC and
embedded memory without system overheads. Minor modifications were also
made to the kernel for this patch. These include changes such as
EXPORTing of fat_get_block in the kernel code. Another function,
mpage_cleardirty was also added to the memory management code. This
function is used to clear the dirty pages from a specific inode. This
allows for direct, file based DMA. None of these changes are believed to
have any negative impact on the kernel and may provide additional
benefit for other developers and drivers.
The driver, as submitted, was placed into the drivers/staging/westbridge
folder as the directory structure it will eventually reside in is not yet
defined. The driver, as placed in staging is divided into four parts:
1) gadget - this implements a gadget peripheral controller and includes IOCTLs
for MTP transfers
2) block -this implements a generic block device driver to enable access to
embedded memory
3) api -this is the Cypress SDK, and includes USB and Storage specific
functions. In addition, it includes common code for low level routines such as
message passing and common data transfer routines
4) hal - this should likely be included in the arch directory as it needs to
be modified for a given platform. The directory structure in the staging area
is meant to reflect the eventual location of where this code likely should be.
It is platform specific. In this case, the HAL included is for the Android
Zoom 2 platform. Here, West Bridge is connected to the GPMC (general purpose
memory controller) of the OMAP3. Specific timing needs to be enabled to ensure
reliable communication.
