Staging: tidspbridge: disable driver
There seems to be no active maintainer for the driver, and there
is an
unfixed security bug, so disable the driver for now.
Hopefully someone steps up to be the maintainer, and works to get
this
out of staging, otherwise it will be deleted soon.
Reported-by: Nico Golde <nico@ngolde.de>
Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
so perhaps Nico Golde or Dan Carpenter can elaborate? I Cc-ed them
now.
Or is it some kind of super-secret issue and still under embargo for
10 days?
Pavel
