[PATCH] Remove auto_irq.c

[PATCH] Remove auto_irq.c

[Jonathan Corbet]

I was looking to see if anything still uses the autoirq_* functions in
2.6.  Turns out that nothing does; in fact, the file is not even compiled.
I would guess we don't need to lug auto_irq.c around anymore...

-/* auto_irq.c: Auto-configure IRQ lines for linux. */
-/*
-    Written 1994 by Donald Becker.

-
-    This code is a general-purpose IRQ line detector for devices with
-    jumpered IRQ lines.  If you can make the device raise an IRQ (and
-    that IRQ line isn't already being used), these routines will tell
-    you what IRQ line it's using -- perfect for those oh-so-cool boot-time
-    device probes!
-
-    To use this, first call autoirq_setup(timeout). TIMEOUT is how many
-    'jiffies' (1/100 sec.) to detect other devices that have active IRQ lines,
-    and can usually be zero at boot.  'autoirq_setup()' returns the bit
-    vector of nominally-available IRQ lines (lines may be physically in-use,
-    but not yet registered to a device).
-    Next, set up your device to trigger an interrupt.
-    Finally call autoirq_report(TIMEOUT) to find out which IRQ line was
-    most recently active.  The TIMEOUT should usually be zero, but may
-    be set to the number of jiffies to wait for a slow device to raise an IRQ.
-
-    The idea of using the setup timeout to filter out bogus IRQs came from
-    the serial driver.
