SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/3] g_NCR5380: Remove deprecated __setup

Removing useful features is deprecated too.

The best reason I can see for removing the __setup parameters is that the
g_NCR5380 module parameters clash with those of the g_NCR5380_mmio module
(when both are built-in). But only a custom kernel would configure them as
built-in drivers, and it probably would not have both drivers enabled. So
a clash seems unlikely.

Anyway, Christoph seems to be OK with this so I won't object. But if you
assume that no-one has built-in g_NCR5380{,_mmio} drivers, or you believe
that the benefit outweighs the inconvenience of the breakage caused, then
the commit log should explain that.
