From 732d481127abaa0add41ee918191ea08e9ede17e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wolfram Sang Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2009 22:45:48 +0200 Subject: i2c/chips: Remove deprecated pca9539 driver The pca9539 driver in drivers/i2c/chips which just exports its registers to sysfs is superseded by drivers/gpio/pca953x.c which properly uses the gpiolib. As this driver has been deprecated for more than a year, finally remove it.
