2013-12-19	[SCSI] aci7xxx_old: delete decade+ obsolete driver	Paul Gortmaker	8	-4868/+0
	After getting warnings in an allyesconfig build[1] from this driver, I decided to remind myself just how old it was, and whether it warranted fixing. In the Kconfig help text, I found: "This driver will eventually be phased out entirely" Going back to the history archive, I see the line was added[2] in Feb 2002, when we moved from v2.4.2.1 ---> v2.4.2.2 So, with over a decade of notification, and multiple major releases since then, I think we can justify removing this. Currently we have people wasting time building it during routine testing, and then wasting more time re-researching the known reported warnings, only to find that nobody really is willing to integrate the fixes[3] for it. A quick search didn't seem to indicate any active user base for it. If someone happens to have a quirky _old_ card that the eleven year old "new" driver doesn't work with, then it is entirely reasonable that they stick with a kernel version that predates this removal.

	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
