    acer-wmi: remove threeg and interface sysfs interfaces · c4602280
    Lee, Chun-Yi authored
    Since v3.0 kernel, acer-wmi driver auto detects internal 3G device and
    provides the threeg rfkill interface. So the sysfs interface of 3G is
    no longer necessary now.
    
    The 7b8aca65 patch added kernel information log to remind to user space
    for the threeg sysfs interface will be removed in 2012, then b58b9ffc
    
     patch
    updated the interface removing time to 2014.
    
    I think the 3 years lead time is enough for user space application to use
    rfkill instead of sysfs interface to control 3G device.
    
    This patch removes code about threeg sysfs interface. And it also removes the
    unused interface sysfs that exposes which ACPI-WMI method used by acer-wmi
    driver on the machine. The information is already exposed by the acer-wmi
    initial log.
