media: meye: deprecate this driver

Deprecate the meye driver. This driver does not use the vb2 framework
for video streaming, instead it implements its own version.

We want to get rid of these old drivers, so deprecated it for future
removal.

If you say Y or M here, you need to say Y or M to "Sony Laptop
Extras" in the misc device section.
This driver is deprecated and is scheduled for removal by
the beginning of 2023. See the TODO file for more information.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called meye.
The meye driver does not use the vb2 framework for streaming
video, instead it implements this in the driver.
To prevent removal of this driver early 2023 it has to be
converted to use vb2. Contact the linux-media@vger.kernel.org
mailing list if you want to do this.
