i2c/chips: Remove deprecated pcf8574 driver

The pcf8574 driver in drivers/i2c/chips which just exports its register to
sysfs is superseded by drivers/gpio/pcf857x.c which properly uses the gpiolib.
As this driver has been deprecated for more than a year, finally remove it.

Description
-----------
The PCF8574(A) is an 8-bit I/O expander for the I2C bus produced by Philips
Semiconductors. It is designed to provide a byte I2C interface to up to 16
separate devices (8 x PCF8574 and 8 x PCF8574A).
This device consists of a quasi-bidirectional port. Each of the eight I/Os
can be independently used as an input or output. To setup an I/O as an
input, you have to write a 1 to the corresponding output.
For more informations see the datasheet.
Accessing PCF8574(A) via /sys interface
-------------------------------------
The PCF8574(A) is plainly impossible to detect ! Stupid chip.
So, you have to pass the I2C bus and address of the installed PCF857A
and PCF8574A devices explicitly to the driver at load time via the
force=... parameter.
On detection (i.e. insmod, modprobe et al.), directories are being
created for each detected PCF8574(A):
/sys/bus/i2c/devices/<0>-<1>/
where <0> is the bus the chip was detected on (e. g. i2c-0)
and <1> the chip address ([20..27] or [38..3f]):
(example: /sys/bus/i2c/devices/1-0020/)
Inside these directories, there are two files each:
read and write (and one file with chip name).
The read file is read-only. Reading gives you the current I/O input
if the corresponding output is set as 1, otherwise the current output
value, that is to say 0.
The write file is read/write. Writing a value outputs it on the I/O
port. Reading returns the last written value. As it is not possible
to read this value from the chip, you need to write at least once to
this file before you can read back from it.

If you say yes here you get support for Philips PCF8574 and
PCF8574A chips. These chips are 8-bit I/O expanders for the I2C bus.
This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called pcf8574.
This driver is deprecated and will be dropped soon. Use
drivers/gpio/pcf857x.c instead.
These devices are hard to detect and rarely found on mainstream
hardware. If unsure, say N.

/* A few notes about the PCF8574:
* The PCF8574 is an 8-bit I/O expander for the I2C bus produced by
Philips Semiconductors. It is designed to provide a byte I2C
interface to up to 8 separate devices.
* The PCF8574 appears as a very simple SMBus device which can be
read from or written to with SMBUS byte read/write accesses.
