[PATCH] The scheduled removal of some OSS drivers

This patch contains the scheduled removal of OSS drivers that:
- have ALSA drivers for the same hardware without known regressions and
- whose Kconfig options have been removed in 2.6.17.

-	An OSS/Lite Driver for the ESS Maestro3 family of sound chips
-
-			Zach Brown, January 2001
-
-Driver Status and Availability
-------------------------------
-
-The most recent version of this driver will hopefully always be available at
-	http://www.zabbo.net/maestro3/
-
-I will try and maintain the most recent stable version of the driver
-in both the stable and development kernel lines.
-
-Historically I've sucked pretty hard at actually doing that, however.
-
-ESS Maestro3 Chip Family
------------------------
-
-The 'Maestro3' is much like the Maestro2 chip.  The noted improvement
-is the removal of the silicon in the '2' that did PCM mixing.  All that
-work is now done through a custom DSP called the ASSP, the Asynchronus
-Specific Signal Processor.
-
-The 'Allegro' is a baby version of the Maestro3.  I'm not entirely clear
-on the extent of the differences, but the driver supports them both :)
-
-The 'Allegro' shows up as PCI ID 0x1988 and the Maestro3 as 0x1998,
-both under ESS's vendor ID of 0x125D.  The Maestro3 can also show up as
-0x199a when hardware strapping is used.
-
-The chip can also act as a multi function device.  The modem IDs follow
-the audio multimedia device IDs.  (so the modem part of an Allegro shows
-up as 0x1989)
-
-Driver OSS Behavior
---------------------
-
-This OSS driver exports /dev/mixer and /dev/dsp to applications, which
-mostly adhere to the OSS spec.   This driver doesn't register itself
-with /dev/sndstat, so don't expect information to appear there.
-
-The /dev/dsp device exported behaves as expected.  Playback is
-supported in all the various lovely formats.  8/16bit stereo/mono from
-8khz to 48khz, with both read()/write(), and mmap().
-
-/dev/mixer is an interface to the AC'97 codec on the Maestro3.  It is
-worth noting that there are a variety of AC'97s that can be wired to
-the Maestro3.  Which is used is entirely up to the hardware implementor.
-This should only be visible to the user by the presence, or lack, of
-'Bass' and 'Treble' sliders in the mixer.  Not all AC'97s have them.
-The Allegro has an onchip AC'97.
-
-The driver doesn't support MIDI or FM playback at the moment.
-
-Compiling and Installing
-------------------------
-
-With the drivers inclusion into the kernel, compiling and installing
-is the same as most OSS/Lite modular sound drivers.  Compilation
-of the driver is enabled through the CONFIG_SOUND_MAESTRO3 variable
-in the config system.  
-
-It may be modular or statically linked.  If it is modular it should be
-installed with the rest of the modules for the kernel on the system.
-Typically this will be in /lib/modules/ somewhere.  'alias sound-slot-0
-maestro3' should also be added to your module configs (typically
-/etc/modprobe.conf) if you're using modular OSS/Lite sound and want to
-default to using a maestro3 chip.
-
-There are very few options to the driver.  One is 'debug' which will 
-tell the driver to print minimal debugging information as it runs.  This
-can be collected with 'dmesg' or through the klogd daemon.
-
-One is 'external_amp', which tells the driver to attempt to enable
-an external amplifier.  This defaults to '1', you can tell the driver
-not to bother enabling such an amplifier by setting it to '0'.
-
-And the last is 'gpio_pin', which tells the driver which GPIO pin number
-the external amp uses (0-15), The Allegro uses 8 by default, all others 1.
-If everything loads correctly and seems to be working but you get no sound, 
-try tweaking this value. 
-
-Systems known to need a different value
-        Panasonic ToughBook CF-72: gpio_pin=13 
-
-Power Management
-----------------
-
-This driver has a minimal understanding of PCI Power Management.  It will
-try and power down the chip when the system is suspended, and power
-it up with it is resumed.  It will also try and power down the chip
-when the machine is shut down.
