cs5535: deprecate older cs5535_gpio driver

The newer drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c replaces drivers/misc/cs5535_gpio.c.
The new driver has been in the tree for a little while, and has received
some testing; it's time to mark the old one as deprecated.  I'm thinking
removal around 2.6.40 would be good, provided we're not missing critical
functionality in the newer driver.

+This is an obsolete driver for some the CS5535 and CS5536 southbridge GPIOs.
+It has been replaced by a driver that makes use of the Linux GPIO subsystem.
+Please switch to that driver, and let dilinger@queued.net know if there's
+anything missing from the new driver.
+
+This driver is scheduled for removal in 2.6.40.
