Thanks!
Duplicate functionality with the gspca_zc3xx driver, zc0301 only
supports 2 USB-ID's (because it only supports a limited set of
sensors) wich are also supported by the gspca_zc3xx driver
(which supports 53 USB-ID's in total).

Commit 2a6b69765a
(ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the
ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it
during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems
need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work. To allow
the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area
during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line
option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its
alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal
file).

All application domains that are supported by the old ieee1394 driver
stack are supported by the newer firewire driver stack too. There is
now good and extensive experience with the newer stack from deployment
in Fedora since F7 as well as by enthusiast users of other
distributions.
The new drivers have consequently been recommended as the default ones
since 2.6.33, in order to fix some severe usability problems of FireWire
on Linux due to limitations of the old stack. It is now high time to
announce when the obsolete drivers will be removed.

Fixed up trivial conflicts:
- arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h
converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree. The generic
header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine.
- drivers/net/tun.c
fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that
switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly
available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks
to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use.

The preferred module is p54pci which also supports FullMAC
PCI / Cardbus devices. We schedule removal for 2.6.34. Reason
to remove this is no one really is testing prism54 anymore,
and while it works p54pci provides support for the same hardware.
It should be noted I have been told some FullMAC devices may not
have worked with the SoftMAC driver but to date we have yet to
recieve a single bug report regarding this. If there are users
out there please let us know!

This was a hack to give userland shutdown tools time to drop manual
spindown. All popular distros updated quite some time ago and the due
is well passed. Drop it.

If any OSS support is enabled, regardless of built-in or module,
sound_core claims full OSS major number (that is, the old 0-255
region) to trap open attempts and request sound modules using custom
module aliases. This feature is redundant as chrdev already has such
mechanism. This preemptive claiming prevents alternative OSS
implementation.
The custom module aliases are scheduled to be removed and the previous
patch made soundcore emit the standard chrdev aliases too to help
transition.
This patch schedule the feature for removal in a year and makes it
optional so that developers and distros can try new things in the
meantime without rebuilding the kernel. The pre-claiming can be
turned off by using SOUND_OSS_CORE_PRECLAIM and/or kernel parameter
soundcore.preclaim_oss.
As this allows sound minors to be individually grabbed by other users,
this patch updates sound_insert_unit() such that if registering
individual device region fails, it tries the next available slot.
For details on removal plan, please read the entry added by this patch
in feature-removal-schedule.txt .

When IPv4 and IPv6 matches were unified approx. 3.5 years ago, they
received new header filenames (e.g. xt_CLASSIFY.h). Let's remove the
old ones now.

As announced in feature-remove-schedule.txt remove CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE

by CONFIG_X86_NEW_MCE is still kept.

lock_policy_rwsem_* and unlock_policy_rwsem_* routines in cpufreq.c are
currently exported to drivers. Improper use of those locks can
result in deadlocks and it is better to keep the locks localized.
Two previous in-kernel users of these interfaces (ondemand and conservative),
do not use this interfaces any more. Schedule them for removal.

These methods were useful in the legacy binding model but no longer in
the new (standard) binding model. There are no users left so we can

This adds IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM to the feature-removal (deprecated) list
since most of the IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM users are technically bogus as
entropy sources in the kernel's current entropy model.
