41Why: This driver is deprecated and the firmware is no longer
42 maintained. The replacement driver "carl9170" has been
43 around for a while, so the devices are still supported.

361When: 2.6.32
362Why: __do_IRQ was kept for easy migration to the type flow handlers.
363 More than two years of migration time is enough.

625What: noswapaccount kernel command line parameter
626When: 2.6.40
627Why: The original implementation of memsw feature enabled by
628 CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP could be disabled by the noswapaccount
629 kernel parameter (introduced in 2.6.29-rc1). Later on, this decision
630 turned out to be not ideal because we cannot have the feature compiled
631 in and disabled by default and let only interested to enable it
632 (e.g. general distribution kernels might need it). Therefore we have
633 added swapaccount[=0|1] parameter (introduced in 2.6.37) which provides
634 the both possibilities. If we remove noswapaccount we will have
635 less command line parameters with the same functionality and we
636 can also cleanup the parameter handling a bit ().
