[PATCH] cdx: remove unused struct 'cdx_mcdi_copy_buffer'

[PATCH] cdx: remove unused struct 'cdx_mcdi_copy_buffer'

[linux]

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <linux@treblig.org>

'cdx_mcdi_copy_buffer' has been unused since the original
commit eb96b740192b ("cdx: add MCDI protocol interface for firmware
interaction").

Looking at lkml,  it was used in the V1 posting but was removed
somewhere before V6.

Remove it.

Hi Nipun,
  Do you know who would pick this one up? I don't think it's made it's
way into -next yet.

This patch is from David to remove an unused structure in CDX. He is 
asking me that who will pick this up to be added in linux code. So I 
just added you explicitly, as you will be adding it in the your branch 
which will go in linux-next :)

Sorry, please wait for -rc1 to come out, it's the middle of the merge
window right now and I can't do anything new until then.
