---------------------------
- 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: usedac i386 kernel parameter
-When: 2.6.27
-Why: replaced by allowdac and no dac combination
-Who: Glauber Costa <gcosta@redhat.com>
-
----------------------------
-
-What: print_fn_descriptor_symbol()
-When: October 2009
-Why: The %pF vsprintf format provides the same functionality in a
- simpler way. print_fn_descriptor_symbol() is deprecated but
- still present to give out-of-tree modules time to change.

What: /sys/o2cb symlink
When: January 2010
Why: /sys/fs/o2cb is the proper location for this information - /sys/o2cb
Who: Alok N Kataria <akataria@vmware.com>

+
+What: adt7473 hardware monitoring driver
+When: February 2010
+Why: Obsoleted by the adt7475 driver.
+Who: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
+
+---------------------------
+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
+ only features that really need multiple path to guess what's
+ the right method name on a specific laptop.
+
+ Removing them will allow to remove a lot of code an significantly
+ clean the drivers.
+
+ This will affect the backlight code which won't be able to know
+ if the backlight is on or off. The platform display file will also be
+ write only (like the one in eeepc-laptop).
+
+ This should'nt affect a lot of user because they usually know
+ when their display is on or off.
