Remove the satlink driver. It was disabled everywhere, had no man page and
no use either. Spotted by thorpej in PR/21345, ok christos.

# 1.33 23-Sep-2018 maxv

Remove ISDN from the kernel. It has remained unmaintained for a long time,
is of poor quality, and is now an obstacle to MP-ification. It was removed
ten years ago from FreeBSD for the same reason.

This retires a big user of the mbuf API, and will ease maintenance of the
kernel.

yes, be careful. They can easily conflict. Actually when this happens kdump

# 1.5 07-Nov-2000 lukem

fix up various .Nm abuses:
- keep the case consistent between the actual name and what's referenced.
e.g, if it's `foo', don't use '.Nm Foo' at the start of a sentence.
- remove unnecessary `.Nm foo' after the first occurrence (except for
using `.Nm ""' if there's stuff following, or for the 2nd and so on
occurrences in a SYNOPSIS
- use Sx, Ic, Li, Em, Sq, and Xr as appropriate
