Thanks Martin for the update.
It would be better to announce the removal a release in advance,
to let possible users know about it and cover themselves.
This is what our device deprecation policy.
But for this case, keeping the driver in this release will mean
to maintain it in the LTS for two more years. Because of this I am
OK to remove the driver, but cc'ed techboard for any objection.
Also I don't know if device was available in the public market,
what is the chance to have the users using this device without
your company's knowledge.
