Trying to register the DSP platform device results in a null pointer
access:
[ 0.124184] CPU 0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00000000, epc == 804e305c, ra == 804e6f20
[ 0.135208] Oops[#1]:
[ 0.137514] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Not tainted 4.14.87
...
[ 0.197117] epc : 804e305c bcm63xx_dsp_register+0x80/0xa4
[ 0.202838] ra : 804e6f20 board_register_devices+0x258/0x390
...
This happens because it tries to copy the passed platform data over the
platform_device's unpopulated platform_data.
Since this code has been broken since its submission, no driver was ever
submitted for it, and apparently nobody was using it, just remove it
instead of trying to fix it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
