Revert "OMAP4: Android Kernel Names and Versions"
This reverts commit 222dcf5a83f2cf51181b778c963b80c0b9e54911. We are going to use CONFIG_MODVERSIONS instead of this. Change-Id: I32a4e5921540a7cd116b5b0ab1abfd2001d8e5fc Signed-off-by: Tate Hornbeck <tate.hornbeck@ti.com>

-Texas Instruments Android Linux kernel releases
-
-Kernel Name
------------------------------------------------
-
-Texas Instruments releases the Android kernel with associated kernel name. The kernel name consists of
-<kernel major >.<kernel minor>-Android-<TI's Android project revision>.
-
-For example:
-3.0.19-Android-L4AI-R0001 denotes
-
-Kernel Major Version: For Example 3
-Kernel Minor Version: For Example 0.19
-Kernel Type – Android
-TI Project Minor Kernel Release – For Examle R0001
-
-Please note that TI “Project Release” does not follow the repository's version TAG, such as L4AI.1.1.
-It has it's own version with the project and can use the program's name without the version appended.
-
-TI “Project Minor Kernel Release” changes when kernel's ABI of the major TI major subcomponent changes in such a way
-that it prevents other major subcomponents to operate correctly.
-For example the DSS/DSSCOMP or PM RUNTIME API or behavior change, etc.
-
-A developer, changing a major Kernel ABI initiates the change of the kernel revision name.
-The maintainer of the kernel for the respective Android project is responsible for verifying that new patches to the kernel
-do not change the major API (Kernel API) in a way to break other components/modules. In case where such events arises,
-the maintainer of the kernel must initiate the revision change of the kernel name and notify the owner of the affected
-components.
-
-To change the kernel name, please update the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION filed of the kernel's respective “defconfig” file.
-For Blaze, for example, the location of the file is at /arch/arm/configs/blaze_defconfig.
-As per the example above the filed would be updated as “-Android-R0001”

-
-Texas Instruments Major Kernel Subcomponents
---------------------------------------------------
-
-All TI kernel major subsystem APIs have:
-Name, Version, Component Dependency, Component API version dependencies and API Owner.
-
-The Name of the API has the following format TI_KERNEL_API_<API NUMBER>_<API_NAME>.
-
-The following API are defined as of the day, this README is updated:
-
-1. TI_KERNEL_API_01_PM RUNTIME – Kernel Power Management
-2. TI_KERNEL_API_02_GFX – SGX Kernel Graphics Driver
-3. TI_KERNEL_API_03_DISPLAY – DSS/DSSCOMP Display subsystem
-4. TI_KERNEL_API_04_OMX – Kernel OpenMax Components
-5. …..............
-
-Kernel Power Management Subcomponent
----------------------------------------
-API Name: TI_KERNEL_API_01_PM RUNTIME
-TBD
-
-Kernel Graphics Driver Subcomponent
----------------------------------------
-
-API Name: TI_KERNEL_API_02_GFX
-Current Version: 1.8@785978
-Version Source Location: drivers/gpu/pvr/pvrversion.h
-Version RT Location: /proc/pvr/version
-Major Subcomponent API dependencies:
- TI_KERNEL_API_01_PM RUNTIME version xxx_tbd
- TI_KERNEL_API_03_DISPLAY version xxx_tbd
-API maintainers: Atanas (Tony) Zlatinski <zlatinski@gmail.com>, Hemant Hariyani <hemanthariyani@ti.com>
-
-Notes: SGX kernel component are built outside the kernel tree as a kernel loadable module.
-Please refer to SGX Graphics Driver README file for details.
-
-DSS/DSSCOMP Display Driver Subcomponent
-----------------------------------------
-
-API Name: TI_KERNEL_API_03_DISPLAY
-TBD
-
-Kernel OpenMax Subcomponents
-----------------------------------------
-
-API Name: TI_KERNEL_API_04_OMX
-TBD
