Subject: [PATCH 1/1] 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.
And 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.

+If no one steps in to adopt the driver, it will be removed in the 3.7 release.
