<title>cs5535: deprecate older cs5535_gpio driver</title>

<id>cf8e9086de5daf14dbf0be9efef7d2793f256693</id>
<content type='text'>
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 driver is for the Security Processor, a dedicated encryption
and decryption driver that is used on the Intel mobile platform.

This has been checked with checkpatch and there are four
warnings for lines over 80 charactors.

There is one compile warning. This is for a function that is
only used if the rar register driver is needed. There is an
ifdef in a header file that stubs out the rar register driver
if the rar register is not configured.

This driver does add a configuration, which is CONFIG_DX_SEP.
