Mauro Carvalho Chehab 54a19b4d3f docs: ABI: cleanup several ABI documents

There are some ABI documents that, while they don't generate
any warnings, they have issues when parsed by get_abi.pl script
on its output result.

Address them, in order to provide a clean output.

What: raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire) Date: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37 Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Description: /dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level access to FireWire buses. Its major drawbacks were its inability to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level of abstraction that required userspace clients to duplicate much of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality.

Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of
firewire-core.

Users: libraw1394 (works with firewire-cdev too, transparent to library ABI users)
