-What:  I2C interface of the it87 driver
-When:  January 2007

-What:  Bridge netfilter deferred IPv4/IPv6 output hook calling
-When:  January 2007
-Why:   The deferred output hooks are a layering violation causing unusual
-       and broken behaviour on bridge devices. Examples of things they
-       break include QoS classifation using the MARK or CLASSIFY targets,
-       the IPsec policy match and connection tracking with VLANs on a
-       bridge. Their only use is to enable bridge output port filtering
-       within iptables with the physdev match, which can also be done by
-       combining iptables and ebtables using netfilter marks. Until it
-       will get removed the hook deferral is disabled by default and is
-       only enabled when needed.

+What:  ACPI hooks (X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO_ACPI) in speedstep-centrino driver
+When:  December 2006
+Why:   Speedstep-centrino driver with ACPI hooks and acpi-cpufreq driver are
+       functionally very much similar. They talk to ACPI in same way. Only
+       difference between them is the way they do frequency transitions.
+       One uses MSRs and the other one uses IO ports. Functionaliy of
+       speedstep_centrino with ACPI hooks is now merged into acpi-cpufreq.
+       That means one common driver will support all Intel Enhanced Speedstep
+       capable CPUs. That means less confusion over name of
+       speedstep-centrino driver (with that driver supposed to be used on
+       non-centrino platforms). That means less duplication of code and
+       less maintenance effort and no possibility of these two drivers
+       going out of sync.
+       Current users of speedstep_centrino with ACPI hooks are requested to
+       switch over to acpi-cpufreq driver. speedstep-centrino will continue
+       to work using older non-ACPI static table based scheme even after this
+       date.
