spi: remove completely broken Tegra driver
The current SPI driver has many issues. Examples are:
* Segfaulting on most transfers due to expecting all transfers to have
both RX and TX buffers.
* Hanging on TX transfers since the whole driver flow is driven by RX
DMA completion, but the HW is only told to enable RX for RX transfers.
* Use of clk_disable_unprepare() from atomic context.
* Once those and other minor issues are fixed, the driver still doesn't
actually work.
* The driver also implements a deprecated API to the SPI core.
For this reason, simply remove the driver completely. This has two
advantages:
1) This will remove the last use of Tegra's <mach/dma.h>, which will
allow that file to be removed, which is required for single zImage
work.
2) The downstream driver is significaly different from the current
code. I believe a patch to re-add the downstream driver (with
appropriate cleanup) will be much simpler to review if it's a new
file rather than randomly interspered with essentially unrelated
existing code.
