Subject: RFC: removing DONGLE_OLD drivers?
Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2007 19:25:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070709172539.GF3492@stusta.de> (raw)
With one exception, all DONGLE_OLD drivers have newer counterparts.
The DONGLE_OLD drivers depend on BROKEN_ON_SMP which e.g. implies that
the many distributions shipping only SMP-kernels will never offer them.
The one exception is a driver for the Cirrus Logic EDB-7211 evaluation
board that itself is out of production for some years.
Can we remove these old drivers or is there a good reason for keeping
them?
