From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> The initial Axxia port was contributed by LSI in 2014, but never completed after the sale of the business unit to Intel, which kept supporting the bulk of the drivers in their own downstream BSP. The downstream work has also ended now, and there is no realistic chance that anyone would rewrite it all into an upstreamable port. Remove it now that the 7.3LTS release is out and can be used as the base for one more downstream rebase of the downstream patches if needed.
