tty: move obsolete and broken generic_serial drivers to drivers/staging/generic_serial/ 



As planned by Arnd Bergmann, this moves the following drivers to the
drivers/staging/generic_serial directory where they will be removed
after 2.6.41 if no one steps up to claim them.
	generic_serial
	rio
	ser_a2232
	sx
	vme_scc

	  This is a driver for the SX and SI multiport serial cards.

config RIO

	tristate "Specialix RIO system support"

	help

	  This is a driver for the Specialix RIO, a smart serial card which

	  drives an outboard box that can support up to 128 ports.  Product

	  This option supports the 2232 7-port serial card shipped with the

	  ports were connected with 8 pin DIN connectors on the card bracket,

	  for which 8 pin to DB25 adapters were supplied. The card also had

	  jumpers internally to toggle various pinning configurations.



	  This driver can be built as a module; but then "generic_serial"

	  will also be built as a module. This has to be loaded before
