net: spider_net: Remove powerpc Cell driver
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This driver can no longer be built since support for IBM Cell Blades was
removed, in particular PPC_IBM_CELL_BLADE.

Remove the driver and the documentation.
Remove the MAINTAINERS entry, and add Ishizaki and Geoff to CREDITS.
