135What: au1x00_uart driver
136When: January 2006
137Why: The 8250 serial driver now has the ability to deal with the differences
138 between the standard 8250 family of UARTs and their slightly strange
139 brother on Alchemy SOCs. The loss of features is not considered an
140 issue.

237When: September 2006
238Why: Does no longer build since quite some time, and was never popular,
239 due to the platform being replaced by successor models. Apparently
240 no user base left. It also is one of the last users of
241 WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL.

265 no user base left for these platforms. Hardware out of production
266 since several years and hardly a trace of the manufacturer left on
267 the net.
