You need to commit message to justify why these should be removed.
Also, please remove each driver one by one, so that if there are
users, it is easier to revert.
Please also look at the discussion about these MAC drivers over the
last couple of months. We discussed removing some of them, but they
still have users, and one of them gained a new Maintainer.
