dgrs: remove from build, config, and maintainer list 



Stop building and configuring driver for Digi RightSwitch, which was
never actually sold to anyone, and remove it from MAINTAINERS.

In response to an investigation into the firmware of the "Digi Rightswitch"
driver, Andres Salomon discovered:

Since the product never reached market, clearly nobody is using this orphaned
driver.

    The Digi International RightSwitch SE-X (dgrs) Device Driver



This is a Linux driver for the Digi International RightSwitch SE-X

EISA and PCI boards.  These are 4 (EISA) or 6 (PCI) port Ethernet

switches and a NIC combined into a single board.  This driver can

be compiled into the kernel statically or as a loadable module.



There is also a companion management tool, called "xrightswitch".

The management tool lets you watch the performance graphically,

as well as set the SNMP agent IP and IPX addresses, IEEE Spanning

Tree, and Aging time.  These can also be set from the command line

when the driver is loaded.  The driver command line options are:



	debug=NNN		Debug printing level

	dma=0/1			Disable/Enable DMA on PCI card

	spantree=0/1		Disable/Enable IEEE spanning tree

	hashexpire=NNN		Change address aging time (default 300 seconds)

	ipaddr=A,B,C,D		Set SNMP agent IP address i.e. 199,86,8,221

	iptrap=A,B,C,D		Set SNMP agent IP trap address i.e. 199,86,8,221

	ipxnet=NNN		Set SNMP agent IPX network number

	nicmode=0/1		Disable/Enable multiple NIC mode



There is also a tool for setting up input and output packet filters

on each port, called "dgrsfilt".



Both the management tool and the filtering tool are available

separately from the following FTP site:



	ftp://ftp.dgii.com/drivers/rightswitch/linux/



When nicmode=1, the board and driver operate as 4 or 6 individual

NIC ports (eth0...eth5) instead of as a switch.  All switching

functions are disabled.  In the future, the board firmware may include

a routing cache when in this mode.
