Subject: [stable] Deleting "mt7621-mmc" with "interesting" license?

Hi!

I realize that "interesting" license is not on a list of bugs suitable
for -stable, but on the other hand, this tends to scare corporate
lawyers... so perhaps we should remove the driver in -stable, too?

Upstream commit id is 441bf7332d55c4d34afae9ffc3bbec621093f4d1.

4.19 has the problematic driver, 4.4 does not.

Best regards,
									Pavel
