-What: dv1394 driver (CONFIG_IEEE1394_DV1394)
-When: June 2007
-Why: Replaced by raw1394 + userspace libraries, notably libiec61883. This
- shift of application support has been indicated on www.linux1394.org
- and developers' mailinglists for quite some time. Major applications
- have been converted, with the exception of ffmpeg and hence xine.
- Piped output of dvgrab2 is a partial equivalent to dv1394.

-What: ACPI hotkey driver (CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY)
-When: 2.6.21
-Why: hotkey.c was an attempt to consolidate multiple drivers that use
- ACPI to implement hotkeys. However, hotkeys are not documented
- in the ACPI specification, so the drivers used undocumented
- vendor-specific hooks and turned out to be more different than
- the same.
-
- Further, the keys and the features supplied by each platform
- are different, so there will always be a need for
- platform-specific drivers.
-
- So the new plan is to delete hotkey.c and instead, work on the
- platform specific drivers to try to make them look the same
- to the user when they supply the same features.
-
- hotkey.c has always depended on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

+What: Wireless extensions over netlink (CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS_RTNETLINK)
+When: with the merge of wireless-dev, 2.6.22 or later
+Why: The option/code is
+ * not enabled on most kernels
+ * not required by any userspace tools (except an experimental one,
+ and even there only for some parts, others use ioctl)
+ * pointless since wext is no longer evolving and the ioctl
+ interface needs to be kept
