You could just remove this driver completely as well. Because
practically since
it's inclusion in to the main stream kernel it has been outdated and
nonfunctioning.
1. Formerly the actually usable driver has actually maintained under
the URL data you remove.
2. Nobody ever cared to synchronize the maintained driver and the in
kernel one.
3. The physical recording format in the driver provided with the
kernel is broken.
4. Right now the corresponding user space tools can't be found on the
web any longer.
5. I'm not talking about years. Its more then 5 years in this case.
