cs5535: deprecate older cs5535_gpio driver

The newer drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c replaces drivers/misc/cs5535_gpio.c.
The new driver has been in the tree for a little while, and has received
some testing; it's time to mark the old one as deprecated.  I'm thinking
removal around 2.6.40 would be good, provided we're not missing critical
functionality in the newer driver.
