With the relase of Lollipop, Android no longer
requires the logger driver.

There are three patches which the android dev's
still need before they drop logger on all their
devices:

[PATCH v4 1/5] pstores: use scnprintf
[PATCH v2 2/5] pstore: remove superfluous memory size check
[PATCH 3/5] pstore: handle zero-sized prz in series
[PATCH v4 4/5] pstore: add pmsg
[PATCH 5/5] pstore: selinux: add security in-core xattr support for pstore and debugfs

But these seem to have been acked and are hopefully
queued for upstream.

So this patch removes the logger driver from staging.
