Seems reasonable, as CONFIG_COMPUTONE was deleted in this:
---------
commit 51c9d654c2def97827395a7fbfd0c6f865c26544
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxx>

Staging: delete tty drivers
Delete the drivers/staging/tty drivers as no one has wanted to step up
and maintain and fix them. This was discussed in commit
4a6514e6d096716fb7bedf238efaaca877e2a7e8 (tty: move obsolete and broken
tty drivers to drivers/staging/tty/)

For future reference, the option "--irreversible-delete" to
format-patch is a nice way to avoid sending hundreds of lines
of meaningless binary data in e-mail.
Thanks,
Paul.
