There was never an in-tree kernel implementation. Any userspace that
implemented this needs to decide on its own if it will continue to
support the non-mainline kernel and provide a copy of the definitions
itself..

(it was a process mistake to merge a uapi header without a
corresponding uapi implementation, sorry)
