This code is stalled, with no one working on it anymore, and the main
msm code is now going through the proper channels to get merged
correctly.

So remove it as it contains a number of kernel information leaks and it
is doubtful if it even still builds anymore.

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.

<content type='text'>
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
cares enough to port parallel port support to gspca or to create a new driver
that uses the same gspca-cpia sub-driver.

<title>Staging: sst: Intel SST audio driver</title>

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.

<content type='text'>
smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the
way out.

smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody
is going to fix that, so we should be getting
rid of it soon.

This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs
code, and moves all smbfs related files into
drivers/staging/smbfs.

smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the
way out.

smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody
is going to fix that, so we should be getting
rid of it soon.

This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs
code, and moves all smbfs related files into
drivers/staging/smbfs.
