staging: gdm724x: Remove unused driver
Won Kang from gct contributed the driver in 2013.
The following reasons lead to the removal:
- This driver generates maintenance workload
- The manufacturer is not interested and does not care as Emails or
inquiries, to support or involved persons of gct, got unanswered.
- Did not find a possibility to buy the chips.
- Did not find minimal documentation on the web.
- Did not find a device where it is build in and the user is able to
install any Linux. Therefore it is not possible to do any testing of
the driver from the community.
- No blog entries about anyone using the gdmtty and gdmulte.
- No response about usage of this drivers to the Email from April 2024
