Compiling a kernel for the ColdFire causes a compiler warning:

This function seems to be completely unused, so let's remove it
to silence the warning.
And it seems so since the driver addition in 2007 by:

m68knommu: new style ColdFire UART driver
Indeed.
Looks like the "changes to the ColdFire based m68knommu systems
to use a platform model at init, and this is used there" from [1]
never materialized on any public mailing list?
Greg: does it still make sense to add them?
No, it never really turned out to be useful enough to anyone,
so I never really pushed it out or progressed it any further.
So I am fine with removing this now:
Acked-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I can take it via the m68knommu git tree if no one else wants to
pick it up.

Greg
