eth: remove neterion/vxgeThe last meaningful change to this driver was made by Jon in 2011.As much as we'd like to believe that this is because the code isperfect the chances are nobody is using this hardware.Because of the size of this driver there is a nontrivial maintenancecost to keeping this code around, in the last 2 years we're averagingmore than 1 change a month. Some of which require nontrivial revieweffort, see commit 877fe9d49b74 ("Revert "drivers/net/ethernet/neterion/vxge:Fix a use-after-free bug in vxge-main.c"") for example.Let's try to remove this driver. In general, IMHO, we need toestablish a clear path for shedding dead code. It will be hardto unless we have some experience trying to delete stuff.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220701044234.706229-1-kuba@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/net/ethernet/neterion/Makefile
