    sk98lin: mark deprecated in Kconfig
    
    sk98lin is scheduled for removal in July 2007. This patch makes the
    deprecation more obvious in the configuration interface. FWIW, Gentoo have
    been shipping a patch very similar to this for a long time.

          driver, sky2, is provided to support Yukon2-based adapters.
