This driver is old and almost certainly entirely unused. The two other
parallel port Ethernet drivers (de600/de620) were removed by Paul
Gortmaker in commit 168e06ae26dd ("drivers/net: delete old parallel
port de600/de620 drivers"), but this driver remained. Drop it - Paul's
reasoning applies here as well. To quote him:

"The parallel port is largely replaced by USB [...] Let us not pretend
that anyone cares about these drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that
anyone is using them on a modern kernel."

-	This file is a device driver for the RealTek (aka AT-Lan-Tec) pocket
-	ethernet adapter.  This is a common low-cost OEM pocket ethernet
-	adapter, sold under many names.
-
-  Sources:
-	This driver was written from the packet driver assembly code provided by
-	Vincent Bono of AT-Lan-Tec.	 Ever try to figure out how a complicated
-	device works just from the assembly code?  It ain't pretty.  The following
-	description is written based on guesses and writing lots of special-purpose
-	code to test my theorized operation.
-
-	In 1997 Realtek made available the documentation for the second generation
-	RTL8012 chip, which has lead to several driver improvements.
-	  http://www.realtek.com.tw/
-
-					Theory of Operation
-
-	The RTL8002 adapter seems to be built around a custom spin of the SEEQ
-	controller core.  It probably has a 16K or 64K internal packet buffer, of
-	which the first 4K is devoted to transmit and the rest to receive.
-	The controller maintains the queue of received packet and the packet buffer
-	access pointer internally, with only 'reset to beginning' and 'skip to next
-	packet' commands visible.  The transmit packet queue holds two (or more?)
-	packets: both 'retransmit this packet' (due to collision) and 'transmit next
-	packet' commands must be started by hand.
-
-	The station address is stored in a standard bit-serial EEPROM which must be
-	read (ughh) by the device driver.  (Provisions have been made for
-	substituting a 74S288 PROM, but I haven't gotten reports of any models
-	using it.)  Unlike built-in devices, a pocket adapter can temporarily lose
-	power without indication to the device driver.  The major effect is that
-	the station address, receive filter (promiscuous, etc.) and transceiver
-	must be reset.
-
-	The controller itself has 16 registers, some of which use only the lower
-	bits.  The registers are read and written 4 bits at a time.  The four bit
-	register address is presented on the data lines along with a few additional
-	timing and control bits.  The data is then read from status port or written
-	to the data port.
-
-	Correction: the controller has two banks of 16 registers.  The second
-	bank contains only the multicast filter table (now used) and the EEPROM
-	access registers.
-
-	Since the bulk data transfer of the actual packets through the slow
-	parallel port dominates the driver's running time, four distinct data
-	(non-register) transfer modes are provided by the adapter, two in each
-	direction.  In the first mode timing for the nibble transfers is
-	provided through the data port.  In the second mode the same timing is
-	provided through the control port.  In either case the data is read from
-	the status port and written to the data port, just as it is accessing
-	registers.
-
-	In addition to the basic data transfer methods, several more are modes are
-	created by adding some delay by doing multiple reads of the data to allow
-	it to stabilize.  This delay seems to be needed on most machines.
-
-	The data transfer mode is stored in the 'dev->if_port' field.  Its default
-	value is '4'.  It may be overridden at boot-time using the third parameter
-	to the "ether=..." initialization.
-
-	The header file <atp.h> provides inline functions that encapsulate the
-	register and data access methods.  These functions are hand-tuned to
-	generate reasonable object code.  This header file also documents my
-	interpretations of the device registers.

I think I only got CC'd because I touched one of the same files
recently but as an enjoyer of mainline Linux on really old machines
and I didn't even know these existed.
According to google's AI overview the oldest machine I have running
mainline was released 1988 and even that has proper-ish ethernet.

So for FWIW
