---------------------------
-What: eepro100 network driver
-When: January 2007
-Why: replaced by the e100 driver
-Who: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
-
----------------------------
-
What: Unused EXPORT_SYMBOL/EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL exports
(temporary transition config option provided until then)
The transition config option will also be removed at the same time.
---------------------------
-What: init_mm export
-When: 2.6.26
-Why: Not used in-tree. The current out-of-tree users used it to
- work around problems in the CPA code which should be resolved
- by now. One usecase was described to provide verification code
- of the CPA operation. That's a good idea in general, but such
- code / infrastructure should be in the kernel and not in some
- out-of-tree driver.
-Who: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

-
What: usedac i386 kernel parameter
When: 2.6.27
Why: replaced by allowdac and no dac combination
---------------------------
-What: ide-scsi (BLK_DEV_IDESCSI)
-When: 2.6.29
-Why: The 2.6 kernel supports direct writing to ide CD drives, which
- eliminates the need for ide-scsi. The new method is more
- efficient in every way.

-
What: i2c_attach_client(), i2c_detach_client(), i2c_driver->detach_client()
When: 2.6.29 (ideally) or 2.6.30 (more likely)
Why: Deprecated by the new (standard) device driver binding model. Use
