Subject: [PATCH v2 02/15] hamradio: yam: remove YAM_MAGIC
This is checked inconsistently, only in contexts following directly from
the module init, and returns an error to userspace/ignores the condition
entirely, rather than yielding remotely-useful diagnostics.
This is cruft, and we have better debugging tooling nowadays: kill it.
