Dead mappings and drivers in MTD

Hi MTD folks,
we have huge amount of drivers, espacially mapping drives in
'drivers/mtd', and for sure may of them are for ancient devices which
are long dead and not supported by modern kernels anyway. I would like
to do a small clean-up. It is difficult to judge which ones are dead for
me, so I am asking the community to help. Thanks!
There are few easy cases - some drivers depend on Kconfig symbols which
are not defined anywhere - I guess these are clear candidates for
removal. For example this one:
config MTD_DBOX2
tristate "CFI Flash device mapped on D-Box2"
depends on DBOX2 && MTD_CFI_INTELSTD && MTD_CFI_INTELEXT && MTD_CFI_AMDSTD
help
This enables access routines for the flash chips on the Nokia/Sagem
D-Box 2 board. If you have one of these boards and would like to use
Grepping for "DBOX2" gives nothing.
