[2.6 patch] remove the dead ATARI_SCC{,_DMA} options

[Adrian Bunk]

It seems the driver was removed back in kernel 2.3 but the options were 
forgotten.

A revived Atari SCC serial driver should be in Geert's patch queue, or in 
the m68k kernel tree. The SCC_DMA option, however, is dead and can be 
removed.

So I think it's safe to apply the whole patch, and readd
CONFIG_ATARI_SCC together with the new driver.

What sort of work, apart from checkpatch cleanup?

Just remember to add the option to my patch :-)

Thanks,

I believe the MAC_SCC option is for another driver that got removed. I
hope to eventually bring back support for the hardware by adding m68k
mac support to PMAC_ZILOG.
