+What:  Removing the pn544 raw driver.
+When:  3.6
+Why:   With the introduction of the NFC HCI and SHDL kernel layers, pn544.c
+       is being replaced by pn544_hci.c which is accessible through the netlink
+       and socket NFC APIs. Moreover, pn544.c is outdated and does not seem to
+       work properly with the latest Android stacks.
+       Having 2 drivers for the same hardware is confusing and as such we
+       should only keep the one following the kernel NFC APIs.
