[v2,0/3] Move av7110 driver to staging

Message

Mauro Carvalho Chehab June 1, 2021, 9:11 a.m. UTC

This driver was written for a hardware manufactured by TI from
a design made by Convergence. Such hardware supports only
MPEG2, which doesn't fit most of the current DVB transmissions.

It stopped being manufactured more than a decade ago.

Also, recent checks identified that a frontend used by such driver
was broken for sometime without nobody noticing it.

It means that it is time to retire it for good.

This series move both av7110 and sp8870 frontend drivers (which
is used only by av7110) to staging, while keeping the remaining
ttpci support upstream.

It also moves ttpci-eeprom to a common place, as it is used by
both a PCI and an USB driver.

v2:
  - Fix a typo at the TODO file;
  - Add a note at TODO that cleanup patches won't be accepted;
  - Changed the description of the second patch.
