mfd: remove unused adp5520 driver

This driver requires the use of platform_data definitions rather than
devicetree, but that was last used on the blackfin architecture in
2018 and nothing could have used it upstream since.

[Severity: Low]
Should the corresponding block for the _dim attributes also be removed?

Further down in this file, under the documentation for the _dim attributes,
there is another block describing the sysfs nodes for the ADP5520 driver:

		For ADP5520 and ADP5501, <ambient light zone> can be:

		===========  ================================================
		Ambient      sysfs entry
		light zone
		===========  ================================================
		daylight     /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/daylight_dim
		office       /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/office_dim
		dark         /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/dark_dim
		===========  ================================================

Leaving this block behind orphans the documentation for hardware that is no
longer supported.
