I say let's just delete this whole directory as if it doesn't build, no
one is using it, and no one has tried to clean it up since it was
originally added.

Stepan or David or Abhijeet or Daniel, any objection to just deleting
drivers/staging/msm/ at this point in time for the 3.1 kernel release?
You haven't sent any patches to me to clean this code up since the
original patch, way over a year ago.
