No, we have never deleted any of the other trees when we "stopped"
maintaining them, so we shouldn't delete these either.

I need to look this week at using git notes to mark trees as unsupported
or supported in a way that will work well. That should solve this issue
as the note could also say 'go look at the longterm kernel' as well.
