Subject: media: atomisp: remove compat_ioctl32 code
Author:  Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]>
Date:    Mon Jun 14 12:34:07 2021 +0200

This is one of the last remaining users of compat_alloc_user_space()
and copy_in_user(), which are in the process of getting removed.

As of commit 57e6b6f2303e ("media: atomisp_fops.c: disable
atomisp_compat_ioctl32"), nothing in this file is actually getting used
as the only reference has been stubbed out.

Remove the entire file -- anyone willing to restore the functionality
can equally well just look up the contents in the git history if needed.

+16. Fix private ioctls to not need a compat_ioctl handler for running
+    32-bit tasks. The compat code has been removed because of bugs,
+    and should not be needed for modern drivers. Fixing this properly
+    unfortunately means an incompatible ABI change.
