staging: evict abandoned 68360serial.c driver from the kernel

2012-04-10T18:45:38Z

commit 3a0db7215c88077b61a673215756ec4a0dc0c7a5 "TTY: serial, move 68360 driver to staging" did so because the driver had remained broken since 2008. It also added this text to the TODO file: "If no one steps up to adopt any of these drivers, they will be removed in the 3.4 release." A quick search on the internet doesn't reveal anyone actively trying to update/fix this driver, so follow through on the above and remove it from the pending 3.4 release.

TTY: serial, move 68360 driver to staging

2011-09-22T23:00:20Z

This driver has been broken at least since 2008. At that time, a88487c79b (Fix compile errors in SGI console drivers) broke this driver completely. And since nobody noticed for the past 3 years, move it into staging. I think this will rot there and we will throw it away completely after some time. Or maybe someone will volunteer to fix it ;).
