See the TODO for details where this driver came from. Only a few minor
changes were made to make the driver suitable for staging:

* updated Kconfig help text and dependencies
* added TODO
* removed two __DATE__ and __TIME__ printouts to allow reproducible builds
* added to staging main Kconfig + Makefile

Tested on a Renesas Salvator-X board with a Spectec SDW-823 card. I
could connect to a WPA-protected network.

This reverts commit 82ef33af9dd30075adbd9f3dd161b606b8ba88ac.  It turns
out these machines are still out there, and the original patch broke
them.  So revert it, adding back the driver, so people's machines still
work properly.

As of commit 62d5bdf972ebcfc99f72f734ae979713e4ca6450
"Merge branch 'synaptics-rmi4' into next" the input subsystem
has a proper RMI4 infrastructure and touchscreen driver.
The ST Ux500 platform has been converted to use the new driver
and its devicetree bindings. Delete this ancient hack.

The icn, act2000 and pcbit drivers are all for very old hardware,
and it is highly unlikely that anyone is actually still using them
on modern kernels, if at all.

All three drivers apparently are for hardware that predates PCI
being the common connector, as they are ISA-only and active
PCI ISDN cards were widely available in the 1990s.

Looking through the git logs, it I cannot find any indication of a
patch to any of these drivers that has been tested on real hardware,
only cleanups or global API changes.

Remove support for dgap driver since there is no way to get
the firmware files required by the dgap driver into the linux-
firmware tree. The dgap driver is rendered useless without this
firmware and hence this product is considered obsolete by DIGI.
