Jiri Slaby 91ceae374e NET: pc300, move to staging as it is broken
It was marked as BROKEN back in 2008. It is because the tty handling
in the driver is really broken.

There was some activity in January 2012 to fix the driver, but the
patch was commented to be bogus:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/29/160
and we have not heard back from the author since then:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/28/412

So since nobody stepped in and rewrote the driver, it is time to move
it out of line now. And drop it some time later if nobody comes up
with patches to fix the driver in staging.

This driver is broken because of struct tty_driver change.
Driver for the Cyclades-PC300 synchronous communication boards.
These boards provide synchronous serial interfaces to your
Linux box (interfaces currently available are RS-232/V.35, X.21 and
T1/E1). If you wish to support Multilink PPP, please select the
option later and read the file README.mlppp provided by PC300
package.
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called pc300.
If unsure, say N.
