#1239145 — [PATCH] staging: dgap: remove unused configuration

The IO configuration was not used to configure the board. It was only
read from the configuration file. Stop reading it and also remove the
other related variables defined for it.

But say someone has an old config file with IO in it, doesn't this break
their system?

No, it should not. dgap_parsefile() is executing a loop and reading
tokens from the configuration file and depending on what token it has
read it will do switch-case. And it will not find case IO: anymore and
will be just ignored (there is no default:).

And this is actually just a first step towards removing the
configuration file as Greg was telling that loading a firmware file and
consideing it as a configuartion file is not the right thing to do. So I
am removing all the unused configurations one at a time and after they
are removed then depending on the configurations left I will ask for
your suggestion how to remove the use of configuration file.

sudip
