[PATCH] SOUND-OSS: Remove sh_dac_audio

[PATCH] SOUND-OSS: Remove sh_dac_audio

[John Kacur]

Remove the SH DAC oss driver since there is an equivalent alsa driver.
oss has been deprecated for years. Furthermore this driver has BKL code
which we are trying to remove. Rather than attempt to fix this, simply
remove the driver.

Since I thought I had already removed this ages ago but appear to have
been imagining things:

Oh well, nevermind my comment about keeping it then.

Takashi Iwai has already queued a patch from me to turn the BKL into a
driver specific mutex, the patch is now in linux-next.

There are still a few things that we may want to remove rather than
fix the BKL, but I don't think that's necessary here.

Unless any strong objection comes up, I'll remove the driver from my
tree, maybe tomorrow, so that it'll be reflected to linux-next.

No idea why I was cc'ed as I have no interested in the driver but certainly
support the motivation behind the patch:

Thanks. FWIW, I cced you because you were part of the original conversation
back in the Stone Ages (or maybe it was just May) about removing certain
OSS drivers that had equivalent ALSA drivers.
