drivers: net: smsc: smc91c92: Remove this driver
The smc91c92 was written by David A Hinds in 1999. It is an PCMCIA device, so unlikely to be used with modern kernels. Remove the Documentation as well, since it refers to kernel versions 1.2.13 until 1.3.71 and FTP sites which no longer exist.

-This file contains the instructions and caveats for my SMC9xxx driver. You
-should not be using the driver without reading this file.
-
-Things to note about installation:
-
- 1. The driver should work on all kernels from 1.2.13 until 1.3.71.
- (A kernel patch is supplied for 1.3.71 )
-
- 2. If you include this into the kernel, you might need to change some
- options, such as for forcing IRQ.
-
-
- 3. To compile as a module, run 'make'.
- Make will give you the appropriate options for various kernel support.
-
- 4. Loading the driver as a module::
-
- use: insmod smc9194.o
- optional parameters:
- io=xxxx : your base address
- irq=xx : your irq
- ifport=x : 0 for whatever is default
- 1 for twisted pair
- 2 for AUI ( or BNC on some cards )
-
-How to obtain the latest version?
