477What: Support for lcd_switch and display_get in asus-laptop driver
478When: March 2010
479Why: These two features use non-standard interfaces. There are the
480 only features that really need multiple path to guess what's
481 the right method name on a specific laptop.
482
483 Removing them will allow to remove a lot of code an significantly
484 clean the drivers.
485
486 This will affect the backlight code which won't be able to know
487 if the backlight is on or off. The platform display file will also be
488 write only (like the one in eeepc-laptop).
489
490 This should'nt affect a lot of user because they usually know
491 when their display is on or off.

540Why: Duplicate functionality with the gspca_zc3xx driver, zc0301 only
541 supports 2 USB-ID's (because it only supports a limited set of
542 sensors) wich are also supported by the gspca_zc3xx driver
543 (which supports 53 USB-ID's in total)
