Ok, it used to compile not-so-long-ago, but it doesn't seem to be cared 
for a lot lately. Let's give Paulius a bit more time to react to this 
mail, otherwise I'll have no objections. Just as an idea, to make it a bit 
milder we could first mark it BROKEN and add to remove schedule... But I 
don't mind either way.

I chose to remove the driver completely rather than marking it BROKEN
because the removal of the driver cleans up platform code a lot :)

Ok, if we hear anything back from Paulius in the next couple of weeks,
I keep the driver there with BROKEN marked.

Sounds fine to me. Of course, if someone wants the driver back and is
willing to fix it, we'll just revert this patch even after the driver
is gone.

I would like an Ack from Mauro however. You did not Cc him directly
in the patch, and he probably has an opionion on it as well, or may
want to take this patch through his git tree.

I've seen Guennadi is collecting camera patches and sending them to
Mauro recently.  So I think Guennadi is someone that Mauro trusts.
But yes, we should copy him directly to see if he has an opionion on
this driver removal.
