[21.04 FEAT] Deactivate CONFIG_QETH_OSN kernel config option

[bugproxy]

OSN devices' final shipment was as part of the IBM z13 release. The primary exploiter was the IBM Communication Controller, which was pulled out of marketing in March 2015 and should be out of service now.
Therefore, we pull the support from all Linux distros going forward.

A kernel test build was done (based on hirsute master-next, that is still 5.8 basis) and is shared here: https://people.canonical.com/~fheimes/lp1906370/

patch send to Ubuntu UNSTABLE:

[Frank Heimes (fheimes)]

It's tagged with Ubuntu-5.10.0-12.13 in hirsute master-next,
hence will come once 5.10 has landed in hirsute.

[Frank Heimes (fheimes)]

The patch for the config change landed in hirsute's kernel:
Ubuntu-5.10.0-12.13
and kernel
5.10.0.12.14 is in proposed,
hence updating the status Fix Committed.

Hi - did you add your comment to the wrong bugzilla..?! I can't quite make the connection here!

[Frank Heimes (fheimes)]

Hi Stefan, you can ignore this - was an accident and is already cleaned up in LP (but the clean-up probably didn't synched to BZ yet).
