<content type='text'>
These serial drivers were removed in kernel v3.1, so we can drop their
documentation files and references to their magic numbers and
parameters.

There are still references to these old drivers in
Documentation/devices.txt but I'm afraid they can't be removed.

<title>wanrouter: completely decouple obsolete code from kernel.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a786a7c0ad44985548118fd2370c792c0da36891</id>
<content type='text'>
The original suggestion to delete wanrouter started earlier
with the mainline commit f0d1b3c2bcc5de8a17af5f2274f7fcde8292b5fc
("net/wanrouter: Deprecate and schedule for removal") in May 2012.

More importantly, Dan Carpenter found[1] that the driver had a
fundamental breakage introduced back in 2008, with commit
7be6065b39c3 ("netdevice wanrouter: Convert directly reference of
netdev-&gt;priv").  So we know with certainty that the code hasn't been
used by anyone willing to at least take the effort to send an e-mail
report of breakage for at least 4 years.

This commit does a decouple of the wanrouter subsystem, by going
after the Makefile/Kconfig and similar files, so that these mainline
files that we are keeping do not have the big wanrouter file/driver
deletion commit tied into their history.

Once this commit is in place, we then can remove the obsolete cyclomx
drivers and similar that have a dependency on CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.

<content type='text'>
The reorganization of the driver layout in drivers/net
left behind some stale paths in comments and in Kconfig
help text.  Bring them up to date.  No actual change to
any code takes place here.

Change all "arch/i386" to "arch/x86" in Documentaion/,
since the directory has changed.

Also update the files which have changed their filename
in the meantime accordingly.

<content type='text'>
The SUN_AURORA driver:
- has been marked as BROKEN for more than two years and
- is still marked as BROKEN.

Drivers that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seem to be
unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future.

But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still
present in the older kernel releases.

This patch renames struct kmem_cache_s to kmem_cache so we can start using
it instead of kmem_cache_t typedef.
