[PATCH] ARM: remove unused/deprecated read_cpuid_part_number()

[Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz]

Commit af040ffc9ba1 ("ARM: make it easier to check the CPU part
number correctly") has left (now unused in the upstream tree and
marked as deprecated) read_cpuid_part_number() while changing
the way it works (using the old function with the definitions will
now always evaluate as false).  This causes problems with porting
older code to new kernels as the code compiles (with warnings but
they are very easy to miss) but it can fail silently or work just
fine depending on the used hardware.

Remove unused/deprecated read_cpuid_part_number() so developers
have to update their code during build time instead of running into
tricky runtime problems later.

Please see the commit af040ffc9ba1 for details on how to convert
your old out-of-tree code to use read_cpuid_part() instead of
read_cpuid_part_number().
