Subject: [patch 2.6.14-rc4 0/3] sk98lin: neuter and prepare for removal
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2005 21:30:59 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <10182005213059.12304@bilbo.tuxdriver.com> (raw)
These patches take steps towards removing sk98lin from the upstream
kernel.
-- Remove sk98lin's MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to avoid
confusing userland tools about which driver to load;
-- Mark sk98lin as Obsolete in the MAINTAINERS file; and,
-- Add sk98lin to the feature-removal-schedule.txt file in the
Documentation directory.
I accept the possibility that I may be jumping the gun on this.
However, I think it is worth opening this discussion.
Patches to follow...
