Subject: [PATCH] Delete obsolete RAW driver feature.


Delete the allegedly obsolete raw driver feature, which has been
marked for death since 2005.

Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@...dspring.com>

  compile-tested with "make allyesconfig" under x86.

-What:	RAW driver (CONFIG_RAW_DRIVER)
-When:	December 2005
-Why:	declared obsolete since kernel 2.6.3
-	O_DIRECT can be used instead
