The custom divisor interface not only old and deprecated, it's too much
driver-dependent. For the user it's not easy to understand what to supply
as a value (usually encoded) via that interface. On top of it, there is
an existing BOTHER mechanism that allows to do the same and more without
any tribal knowledge.
Remove highly customised deprecated interface to set baud rates.
Note, the "standard" custom_divisor that is used as a plain value
for "quot" is still left and may be used by the respective drivers
including but not limited to 8250.
