-What: CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY - old static regulatory information
-When: March 2010 / desktop catchup
-
-Why: The old regulatory infrastructure has been replaced with a new one
- which does not require statically defined regulatory domains. We do
- not want to keep static regulatory domains in the kernel due to the
- the dynamic nature of regulatory law and localization. We kept around
- the old static definitions for the regulatory domains of:
-
- * US
- * JP
- * EU
-
- and used by default the US when CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY was
- set. We will remove this option once the standard Linux desktop catches
- up with the new userspace APIs we have implemented.

What: dev->power.power_state
When: July 2007
Why: Broken design for runtime control over driver power states, confusing
----------------------------
-What: adt7473 hardware monitoring driver
-When: February 2010
-Why: Obsoleted by the adt7475 driver.

What: Support for lcd_switch and display_get in asus-laptop driver
When: March 2010
Why: These two features use non-standard interfaces. There are the
ads7846 driver now. Provided that the original driver is not generic
and is difficult to maintain, it will be removed later.

+What: capifs
+When: February 2011
+Files: drivers/isdn/capi/capifs.*
+Why: udev fully replaces this special file system that only contains CAPI
+ NCCI TTY device nodes. User space (pppdcapiplugin) works without
+ noticing the difference.

+
+What: KVM memory aliases support
+When: July 2010
+Why: Memory aliasing support is used for speeding up guest vga access
+ through the vga windows.
+
+ Modern userspace no longer uses this feature, so it's just bitrotted
+ code and can be removed with no impact.
+Who: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
+
+----------------------------
+
+What: KVM kernel-allocated memory slots
+When: July 2010
+Why: Since 2.6.25, kvm supports user-allocated memory slots, which are
+ much more flexible than kernel-allocated slots. All current userspace
+ supports the newer interface and this code can be removed with no
+ impact.

+
+What: KVM paravirt mmu host support
+When: January 2011
+Why: The paravirt mmu host support is slower than non-paravirt mmu, both
+ on newer and older hardware. It is already not exposed to the guest,
+ and kept only for live migration purposes.
