Hi driver maintainers,

I just posted one series with the removal of eight architectures,
see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/14/505 for details, or
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/ for more background.

These are the device drivers that go along with them. I have already
picked up the drivers for arch/metag/ into my tree, they were reviewed
earlier.

Please let me know if you have any concerns with the patch, or if you
prefer to pick up the patches in your respective trees.  I created
the patches with 'git format-patch -D', so they will not apply without
manually removing those files.

For anything else, I'd keep the removal patches in my asm-generic tree
and will send a pull request for 4.17 along with the actual arch removal.

  can: remove bfin_can driver
  watchdog: remove bfin_wdt driver
  mtd: maps: remove bfin-async-flash driver
  mtd: nand: remove bf5xx_nand driver
If you don't mind, I'd like to take the mtd patches through the MTD
tree. As you've probably noticed, nand code has been moved around and
it's easier for me to carry those 2 simple changes in my tree than
creating an immutable branch.

Let me know if this is a problem.

Regards,

Boris
