These patches take steps towards removing sk98lin from the upstream

	-- Remove sk98lin's MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to avoid
	confusing userland tools about which driver to load;

	-- Mark sk98lin as Obsolete in the MAINTAINERS file; and,

	-- Add sk98lin to the feature-removal-schedule.txt file in the
	Documentation directory.

I accept the possibility that I may be jumping the gun on this.
However, I think it is worth opening this discussion.

I'll let Stephen make the call on this one (as he did...).
