Remove long-unmaintained ftape driver subsystem.
It's bitrotten, long unmaintained, long hidden under BROKEN_ON_SMP,
etc.  As scheduled in feature-removal-schedule.txt, and ack'd several
times on lkml.

-	  If you have a tape drive that is connected to your floppy
-	  controller, say Y here.
-
-	  Some tape drives (like the Seagate "Tape Store 3200" or the Iomega
-	  "Ditto 3200" or the Exabyte "Eagle TR-3") come with a "high speed"
-	  controller of their own. These drives (and their companion
-	  controllers) are also supported if you say Y here.
-
-	  If you have a special controller (such as the CMS FC-10, FC-20,
-	  Mountain Mach-II, or any controller that is based on the Intel 82078
-	  FDC like the high speed controllers by Seagate and Exabyte and
-	  Iomega's "Ditto Dash") you must configure it by selecting the
-	  appropriate entries from the "Floppy tape controllers" sub-menu
-	  below and possibly modify the default values for the IRQ and DMA
-	  channel and the IO base in ftape's configuration menu.
-
-	  If you want to use your floppy tape drive on a PCI-bus based system,
-	  please read the file <file:drivers/char/ftape/README.PCI>.
-
-	  The ftape kernel driver is also available as a runtime loadable
-	  module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
-	  module will be called ftape.
