drivers/block: remove the umem driver
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This removes the driver on the premise that it has been unused for a long
time. This is a better approach compared to changing untestable code
nobody cares about in the first place. Similarly, the umem.com website now
shows a mere Godaddy parking add.

help
Saying Y here will include support for the MM5415 family of
battery backed (Non-volatile) RAM cards.
<http://www.umem.com/>

The cards appear as block devices that can be partitioned into
as many as 15 partitions.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called umem.

The umem driver has not yet been allocated a MAJOR number, so
one is chosen dynamically.
