can entire drivers/acorn subdirectory be removed?

["Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@mindspring.com>]

  given that:

1) drivers/Makefile doesn't even have an entry for the acorn/
   subdirectory, and

2) the Makefile drivers/acorn/char/Makefile is incorrect anyway, since
   it contains:

    obj-$(CONFIG_L7200_KEYB)        += defkeymap-l7200.o keyb_l7200.o

   which refers to a non-existent source file keyb_l7200.c, and it's
based on a non-existent config variable on top of that.  it certainly
seems that that entire subdirectory can be tossed.

  and if that happens, then the config variables defined in
drivers/acorn/block/Kconfig:

  config BLK_DEV_FD1772
  config BLK_DEV_MFM
  config BLK_DEV_MFM_AUTODETECT

would also vanish, which suggests that any references to *them* could
also be deleted:

$ grep -r BLK_DEV_FD1772 *
arch/arm26/defconfig:# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772 is not set
arch/arm26/machine/dma.c:#if defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772) || defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772_MODULE)
arch/arm26/machine/dma.c:#if defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772) || defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772_MODULE)
...

  anyway, you get the idea.  thoughts?
