+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 Moreover, pn544.c is outdated and does not seem to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.
