arch/sh has been a long drag because it supports a lot of SOCs, and most
of them haven't even been converted to device tree infrastructure.  These
SOCs are generally obsolete as well, and all of the support has been barely
maintained for almost 10 years, and not at all for more than 1 year.

Drop arch/sh and everything that depends on it.

I'm still maintaining and using this port in Debian.

It's a bit disappointing that people keep hammering on it. It works fine for me.

Indeed.  The main issue is not the lack of people sending patches and
fixes, but those patches never being applied by the maintainers.
Perhaps someone is willing to stand up to take over maintainership?

Thanks!
