Remove the Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol driver and the
Connection Management Procedures driver. These are incomplete, have never
worked, and are better implemented in userland via raw1394 (see
http://freebob.sourceforge.net/ for example.)

The 8250 serial driver now has the ability to deal with the differences
between the standard 8250 family of UARTs and their slightly strange
brother on Alchemy SOCs. The loss of features is not considered an
issue.

This was marked deprecated "after 2.6" back in the 2.5 days. But now it
seems there isn't going to be any "after 2.6", and we deprecate by date
now. So set a date.

->permission and ->lookup have a struct nameidata * argument these days to
pass down lookup intents. Unfortunately some callers of lookup_hash don't
actually pass this one down. For lookup_one_len() we don't have a struct
nameidata to pass down, but as this function is a library function only
used by filesystem code this is an acceptable limitation. All other
callers should pass down the nameidata, so this patch changes the
lookup_hash interface to only take a struct nameidata argument and derives
the other two arguments to __lookup_hash from it. All callers already have
the nameidata argument available so this is not a problem.
At the same time I'd like to deprecate the lookup_hash interface as there
are better exported interfaces for filesystem usage. Before it can
actually be removed I need to fix up rpc_pipefs.

This patch schedules obsolete OSS drivers (with ALSA drivers that support
the same hardware) for removal.
Scheduling the via82cxxx driver for removal was ACK'ed by Jeff Garzik.

This looks like something which out-of-tree code could possibly be using.
Give panic_timeout the twelve-month treatment.

Remove S4BIOS support. It is pretty useless, and only ever worked for _me_
once. (I do not think anyone else ever tried it). It was in feature-removal
for a long time, and it should have been removed before.

I think it's about time to make the build a little more vocal about the
expiry of these functions. Due to recent discussions with problems in
the console initialisation vs power manglement, I'd like to move the
date forward to September.

Schedule removal of the PCMCIA ioctl (and thus kernel support for the
pcmcia-cs userspace package) for November 2005.
A big "thank you" to Dave Hinds for his great work on supporting PCMCIA in
Linux. Things are just done differently by now, so the ongoing work to make
PCMCIA behave like any other hotpluggable bus should continue.

The gpl exports need to be put back. Moving them to GPL -- but in a
measured manner, as I proposed on this list some months ago -- is fine.
Changing these particular exports precipitously is most definitely -not-
fine. Here is my earlier proposal:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=110520930301813&w=2
See below for a patch that puts the exports back, along with an updated
version of my earlier patch that starts the process of moving them to GPL.
I will also be following this message with RFC patches that introduce two
(EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL) interfaces to replace synchronize_kernel(), which then
becomes deprecated.

These have been deprecated since ->compat_ioctl when in, thus only a short
deprecation period. There's four users left: i2o_config, s390/z90crypy,
s390/dasd and s390/zfcp and for the first two patches are about to be
submitted to get rid of it.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
