The smsc-ircc2 module parameters reference drivers/net/irda/
smsc-ircc2.c, which was removed along with the entire IrDA stack in
commit d64c2a76123f ("staging: irda: remove the irda network stack
and drivers").

The IrDA stack and drivers were removed from the kernel in commit
d64c2a76123f ("staging: irda: remove the irda network stack and
drivers"). Remove the now-obsolete smsc-ircc2 module parameters from
the kernel parameter documentation.
