Luis R. Rodriguez cff55f50b8 staging: remove the Atheros otus vendor driver
Atheros originally had posted a vendor driver to support
the Atheros AR9170 devices, the driver was called otus [1].
The otus driver was staging quality but it, along with
other chipset documentation helped the community do a rewrite
for a proper driver. Johannes Berg did the ar9170 [2] work and
Christian Lamparter then followed up with some final touches
for inclusion upstream.

The original goal behind ar9170 was to match all functionality,
performance, stability and quality against Otus. In the end this
proved quite challenging even with GPLv2 firmware.

Christian then decided to work on a replacement driver with
new enhancements to the GPLv2 firmware. It took 1 year, 5 months,
9 days since this merge of ar9170usb upstream to release carl9170
with upstream inclusion intentions but its now there.

We remove the Otus driver now as the carl9170 driver actually
ends up not only replacing but superseding the staging Otus driver!

menuconfig STAGING
bool "Staging drivers"
default n
---help---
This option allows you to select a number of drivers that are
not of the "normal" Linux kernel quality level. These drivers
are placed here in order to get a wider audience to make use of
them. Please note that these drivers are under heavy
development, may or may not work, and may contain userspace
interfaces that most likely will be changed in the near
future.
Using any of these drivers will taint your kernel which might
affect support options from both the community, and various
commercial support organizations.
If you wish to work on these drivers, to help improve them, or
to report problems you have with them, please see the
driver_name.README file in the drivers/staging/ directory to
see what needs to be worked on, and who to contact.
If in doubt, say N here.
if STAGING
config STAGING_EXCLUDE_BUILD
bool "Exclude Staging drivers from being built" if STAGING
default y
---help---
Are you sure you really want to build the staging drivers?
They taint your kernel, don't live up to the normal Linux
kernel quality standards, are a bit crufty around the edges,
and might go off and kick your dog when you aren't paying
attention.
Say N here to be able to select and build the Staging drivers.
This option is primarily here to prevent them from being built
when selecting 'make allyesconfg' and 'make allmodconfig' so
don't be all that put off, your dog will be just fine.
