i2c: parport-light: remove driver
The justification of a light version of the parport driver was less overhead for embedded systems. Well, today, even if an embedded system still has a parport, it surely can handle the fully-fledged parport driver. Remove it to reduce the maintenance burden.

This driver is a light version of i2c-parport. It doesn't depend
|
||||
on the parport driver, and uses direct I/O access instead. This might be
|
||||
preferred on embedded systems where wasting memory for the clean but heavy
|
||||
parport handling is not an option. The drawback is a reduced portability
|
||||
and the impossibility to daisy-chain other parallel port devices.
|
||||
|
||||
Please see i2c-parport for documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
Module parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
* type: type of adapter (see i2c-parport or modinfo)
|
||||
|
||||
* base: base I/O address
|
||||
Default is 0x378 which is fairly common for parallel ports, at least on PC.
|
||||
|
||||
* irq: optional IRQ
|
||||
This must be passed if you want SMBus alert support, assuming your adapter
|
||||
actually supports this.
