commit d64c2a76123f0300b08d0557ad56e9d599872a36 Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Date: Wed Mar 14 13:12:26 2018 +0100 staging: irda: remove the irda network stack and drivers No one has publicly stepped up to maintain this broken codebase for devices that no one uses anymore, so let's just drop the whole thing. If someone really wants/needs it, we can revert this and they can fix the code up to work properly. Cc: David S.
