[PATCH] ASoC: fsl: remove Efika audio fabric driver

From: Rosen Penev

Date: Tue Jun 09 2026 - 17:57:13 EST


The Efika 5K2 is an OpenFirmware-based PowerPC board from ~2006.
The platform code (PPC_EFIKA) and its sound driver have no in-tree
DTB references and the hardware is long obsolete. Remove the driver.
