The maintainers for mach-msm no longer have any plans to support
or test the platforms supported by this architecture[1]. Most likely
there aren't any active users of this code anyway, so let's
delete it and the associated drivers/code. We should probably merge
this as one big series through arm-soc. Although some patches
should be fine to take through maintainers, some things like
mmc and usb have header file dependencies for platform_data.

As I wrote, I'd have a mild preference for doing the multiplatform
conversion first and then removing the support in the following merge
window, just in case someone wants that code back.

If everyone wants to see that code die rather sooner than later,
that's fine with me as well.
I think everyone wants to see the code die now. They can always pull the
multi-platform patches from the list. I'll stash away my 7200 DT
conversion in case someone cares but I really doubt anybody does.
