 What:  PCMCIA control ioctl (needed for pcmcia-cs [cardmgr, cardctl])
-When:  November 2005

 Files: drivers/pcmcia/: pcmcia_ioctl.c
 Why:   With the 16-bit PCMCIA subsystem now behaving (almost) like a
        normal hotpluggable bus, and with it using the default kernel
        infrastructure (hotplug, driver core, sysfs) keeping the PCMCIA
        control ioctl needed by cardmgr and cardctl from pcmcia-cs is
-       unnecessary, and makes further cleanups and integration of the

+       proper locking), and makes further cleanups and integration of the
        PCMCIA subsystem into the Linux kernel device driver model more
        difficult. The features provided by cardmgr and cardctl are either
        handled by the kernel itself now or are available in the new
        pcmciautils package available at
        http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/pcmcia/

+What:  KVM memory aliases support
+When:  July 2010
+Why:   Memory aliasing support is used for speeding up guest vga access

+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
