Hans Verkuil 427ae153c6 [media] bq/c-qcam, w9966, pms: move to staging in preparation for removal
These drivers haven't been tested in a long, long time. The hardware is
ancient and hopelessly obsolete. These drivers also need to be converted
to newer media frameworks but due to the lack of hardware that's going
to be impossible. In addition, cheaper and vastly better hardware is
available today.

So these drivers are a prime candidate for removal. If someone is
interested in working on these drivers to prevent their removal, then
please contact the linux-media mailinglist.

Let's be honest, the age of parallel port webcams and ISA video capture
boards is really gone.

---help---
This option allows you to select a number of media drivers that
don't have the "normal" Linux kernel quality level.
Most of them don't follow properly the V4L, DVB and/or RC API's,
so, they won't likely work fine with the existing applications.
That also means that, once fixed, their API's will change to match
the existing ones.
If you wish to work on these drivers, to help improve them, or
to report problems you have with them, please use the
linux-media@vger.kernel.org mailing list.
If in doubt, say N here.
