For all I know, Appletalk is dead, the only reasonable
use right now would be nostalgia, and that can be served
well enough by old kernels. The code is largely not
in a bad shape, but it still uses the big kernel lock,
and nobody seems motivated to change that.
FWIW, the last release of MacOS that supported Appletalk
was MacOS X 10.5, made in 2007, and it has been abandoned
by Apple with 10.6. Using TCP/IP instead of Appletalk has
been supported since MacOS 7.6, which was released in
1997 and is able to run on most of the legacy hardware.

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.

udlfb has undergone a fair bit of cleanup recently and is effectively at
the point where it can be liberated from staging purgatory and promoted
to a real driver.
The outstanding cleanups are all minor, with some of them dependent on
drivers/video headers, so these will be done incrementally from udlfb's
new home.

This is submitted as a staging driver because there is a more generic driver
"on the way" for all these devices and has been for some time. The intent is
that as soon as the general drivers are in the mainstream this one will get
any leftovers integrated and then be dumped. Until this unspecified future
data at least people can actually use their hardware.
As its interface is simply input layer we can do that without pain.

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.

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.
