Subject: [PATCH] x86: mark AMD Geode support as orphaned
Date: Tue,  5 May 2026 23:21:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505212458.2263891-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Andres mentioned that he no longer has access to Geode hardware including
the OLPC XO-1, so the MAINTAINERS entry is no longer accurate. I also
noticed that the documentation link no longer works, as the product
was finally discontinued a few years ago.

Aside from the XO-1, there are still a few embeded boards with custom code
in arch/x86/platforms/geode and a number of Geode based thin clients were
shipped that may continue to work without any custom kernel code.

Mark the platform as orphaned, remove the dead link, and update the
files list to include the platform code.
