To quote the TODO from staging/net/:
PC300:
The driver is very broken and cannot work with the current TTY
layer. It is inevitable to convert it to the new TTY API. If no
one steps in to adopt the driver, it will be removed in the 3.7
release.
Nothing has changed since more than _one_ year on this driver, thus
just remove it since we already moved past 3.7. If somebody steps
up and does a whole rework, he/she, of course, is free to resubmit
it. Since this is the only one in the net directory, we can remove
it as well.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option so __devexit is no
longer needed.

It was marked as BROKEN back in 2008. It is because the tty handling
in the driver is really broken.
There was some activity in January 2012 to fix the driver, but the
patch was commented to be bogus:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/29/160
and we have not heard back from the author since then:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/28/412
So since nobody stepped in and rewrote the driver, it is time to move
it out of line now. And drop it some time later if nobody comes up
with patches to fix the driver in staging.
