PATCH RESEND 1/1 mtd: maps: remove obsolete ipaq-flash driver

This driver seems to be obsolete and broken for a long time. It depends on CONFIG_IPAQ_HANDHELD that simply doesn't exists anywhere in kernel. Also, it seems that none of machines it claims to support have any use of it:
SA11xx-based iPAQs (h3100/h3600) use sa1100-flash iPAQ h5000 uses physmap-flash
Jornada 720 uses sa1100-flash
Jornada 560 and iPAQ h1910 are not in mainline
