    Remove new configuration API from i2o_config
    
    The API-patch is still available from the I2O website (which is mentioned in
    the kernel config now).  It is removed because it creates a new binary
    sysfs-attribute, which doesn't have the limitiation of 4k.  Expect for the
    Adaptec controllers, which has a limitation in the hardware this attribute
    doesn't make sense anywhere else.  Until the sysfs API provides an attribute
    which doesn't buffer (like firmware) and let access to at least 64k blocks i
    provide a separate patch...
    
    (akpm: basically, this API was introduced post-2.6.12 and Markus wants to pull
    it out before 2.6.13).
