Several staging directories have TODO files that indicate a
subsystem will be removed in the future.
Using a status entry of "S: Obsolete" helps indicate the
subsystem files should not be modified unnecessarily.
checkpatch also tests this setting and emits a warning that
the matching subsystem files should not be modified.
This might help avoid receiving patches that will be dropped.
