Greg,
This v2 adds the TODO you requested to clarify prism54 will be removed in
two kernel releases from now, and so no further cleanup is needed other
than to ensure the driver compiles.
This is based on linux-next tag next-20170807.

prism54 is deprecated in favor of the p54pci device driver. Although
only *one soul* had reported issues with it long ago Linux most Linux
distributions these days just disable the device driver given the
conflicts with the PCI IDs of p54pci and the *very* unlikely situation
of folks really need this driver anymore.
Before trying to due away with prism54 once more stuff it into staging,
which is our hospice for dying drivers.

Did you build this?
I get the following error:
drivers/staging/Kconfig:117: can't open file "drivers/staging/prism54/Kconfig"
Can you fix this and _test it_ and resend it?
thanks,
