-What: PCI Name Database (CONFIG_PCI_NAMES)
-When: July 2005
-Why: It bloats the kernel unnecessarily, and is handled by userspace better
- (pciutils supports it.) Will eliminate the need to try to keep the
- pci.ids file in sync with the sf.net database all of the time.

-What: register_serial/unregister_serial
-When: September 2005
-Why: This interface does not allow serial ports to be registered against
- a struct device, and as such does not allow correct power management
- of such ports. 8250-based ports should use serial8250_register_port
- and serial8250_unregister_port, or platform devices instead.
