Subject: mfd: Remove Unicode Byte Order Marks from da9055

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <[email protected]>

commit 90a38d999739f35f4fc925c875e6ee518546b66c upstream.

Older gcc (< 4.4) doesn't like files starting with Unicode BOMs:

include/linux/mfd/da9055/core.h:1: error: stray ‘\357’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/core.h:1: error: stray ‘\273’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/core.h:1: error: stray ‘\277’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/pdata.h:1: error: stray ‘\357’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/pdata.h:1: error: stray ‘\273’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/pdata.h:1: error: stray ‘\277’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/reg.h:1: error: stray ‘\357’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/reg.h:1: error: stray ‘\273’ in program
include/linux/mfd/da9055/reg.h:1: error: stray ‘\277’ in program

Remove the BOMs, the rest of the files is plain ASCII anyway.

Output of "file" before:

include/linux/mfd/da9055/core.h:  UTF-8 Unicode (with BOM) C program text
include/linux/mfd/da9055/pdata.h: UTF-8 Unicode (with BOM) C program text
include/linux/mfd/da9055/reg.h:   UTF-8 Unicode (with BOM) C program text

Output of "file" after:

include/linux/mfd/da9055/core.h:  ASCII C program text
include/linux/mfd/da9055/pdata.h: ASCII C program text
include/linux/mfd/da9055/reg.h:   ASCII C program text
