-What: drivers depending on OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER
-When: January 2006
+What: drivers that were depending on OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER
+ (config options already removed)
+When: before 2.6.19
Why: OSS drivers with ALSA replacements
Who: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
---------------------------
-What: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL(panic_timeout)
-When: April 2006
-Files: kernel/panic.c
-Why: No modular usage in the kernel.

What: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL(insert_resource)
When: April 2006
Files: kernel/resource.c
---------------------------
-What: EXPORT_SYMBOL(lookup_hash)
-When: January 2006

What: CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING

---------------------------
+What: Usage of invalid timevals in setitimer
+When: March 2007
+Why: POSIX requires to validate timevals in the setitimer call. This
+ was never done by Linux. The invalid (e.g. negative timevals) were
+ silently converted to more or less random timeouts and intervals.
+ Until the removal a per boot limited number of warnings is printed
+ and the timevals are sanitized.

What: I2C interface of the it87 driver
When: January 2007
Why: The ISA interface is faster and should be always available. The I2C
Who: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
---------------------------
+
+What: find_trylock_page
+When: January 2007
+Why: The interface no longer has any callers left in the kernel. It
+ is an odd interface (compared with other find_*_page functions), in
+ that it does not take a refcount to the page, only the page lock.
+ It should be replaced with find_get_page or find_lock_page if possible.
+ This feature removal can be reevaluated if users of the interface
+ cannot cleanly use something else.
