- Fix #130016 - remove raw. <====
From rom linux/drivers/char/Kconfig
config RAW_DRIVER
tristate "RAW driver (/dev/raw/rawN) (OBSOLETE)"
help
The raw driver permits block devices to be bound to /dev/raw/rawN.
Once bound, I/O against /dev/raw/rawN uses efficient zero-copy I/O.
See the raw(8) manpage for more details.
The raw driver is deprecated and may be removed from 2.7 <====
kernels. Applications should simply open the device (eg /dev/hda1)
with the O_DIRECT flag.
