staging: evict abandoned 68360serial.c driver from the kernel

commit 3a0db721

    "TTY: serial, move 68360 driver to staging"

did so because the driver had remained broken since 2008.  It also
added this text to the TODO file:

   "If no one steps up to adopt any of these drivers, they will
    be removed in the 3.4 release."

A quick search on the internet doesn't reveal anyone actively
trying to update/fix this driver, so follow through on the above
and remove it from the pending 3.4 release.

These are a few serial drivers that either do not build, or do not work if they
do build, or if they seem to work, are for obsolete hardware, or are full of
unfixable races and no one uses them anymore.
If no one steps up to adopt any of these drivers, they will be removed
in the 3.4 release.
