[POWERPC] Schedule removal of arch/ppc

The arch/ppc tree has been in a semi-nebulous "bug fix only" state for a
few kernel releases now.  The patch below officially declares this as of
the 2.6.22 kernel release and schedules arch/ppc for removal in June of
2008.

---------------------------
What: The arch/ppc and include/asm-ppc directories
When: Jun 2008
Why: The arch/powerpc tree is the merged architecture for ppc32 and ppc64
platforms. Currently there are efforts underway to port the remaining
arch/ppc platforms to the merged tree. New submissions to the arch/ppc
tree have been frozen with the 2.6.22 kernel release and that tree will
remain in bug-fix only mode until its scheduled removal. Platforms
that are not ported by June 2008 will be removed due to the lack of an
interested maintainer.
