Description

The family consists of 4 boards, but hasn't seen any activity in years, is unmaintained, stuck on EOL Linux 4.14 and the bootloader does not build.
Thus remove the kernel, the family and the boards which have been unmaintained for some years unfortunately.
See #6821 (comment)

If you have any objections for this removal or would like to maintain these boards, please tell :)

If at some point in the future someone wants to bring back one of those boards, they can find this PR/commit through a GitHub search. But there wasn't too much information removed, to support new kernels >=6.6, work would likely have to be started from scratch anyways.

GitHub issue reference: #6821
Jira reference number AR-2392

those have been .eos for a good while, meaning, they rotted, as they're never built on CI. I guess if anyone was interested they've shown up by now
