    V4L/DVB: Deprecate cpia driver (used for parallel port webcams) · 7af97eff
    Mauro Carvalho Chehab 提交于
    cpia driver were re-written inside gspca driver, for USB devices. The only
    functionality that were not migrated is the support for parallel port,
    as:
    	1) the developer didn't find any hardware;
    	2) it doesn't  seem important to keep support for a parallel port webcam,
    	   as this is an obsolete technology;
    	3) the changes at gspca for it to work with parallel port would be very large;
    	4) this driver still uses BKL.
    
    So, let's move it to drivers/staging and label it to die at 2.6.38, if nobody
    cares enough to port parallel port support to gspca or to create a new driver
    that uses the same gspca-cpia sub-driver.
