It's not just the platform that's dead.
The whole company has been liquidated :(

The following drivers are tango-specific, and it might make sense to remove them along with the platform?
drivers/watchdog/tangox_wdt.c drivers/media/rc/tango-ir.c drivers/media/rc/keymaps/rc-tango.c drivers/irqchip/irq-tango.c drivers/clk/clk-tango4.c drivers/pci/controller/pcie-tango.c drivers/thermal/tango_thermal.c drivers/mtd/nand/raw/tango_nand.c drivers/cpufreq/tango-cpufreq.c drivers/clocksource/timer-tango-xtal.c
