-What:   USER_SCHED
-When:   2.6.34
-
-Why:    USER_SCHED was implemented as a proof of concept for group scheduling.
-        The effect of USER_SCHED can already be achieved from userspace with
-        the help of libcgroup. The removal of USER_SCHED will also simplify
-        the scheduler code with the removal of one major ifdef. There are also
-        issues USER_SCHED has with USER_NS. A decision was taken not to fix
-        those and instead remove USER_SCHED. Also new group scheduling
-        features will not be implemented for USER_SCHED.

-What:   CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY - old static regulatory information
-When:   March 2010 / desktop catchup
-
-Why:    The old regulatory infrastructure has been replaced with a new one
-        which does not require statically defined regulatory domains. We do
-        not want to keep static regulatory domains in the kernel due to the
-        the dynamic nature of regulatory law and localization. We kept around
-        the old static definitions for the regulatory domains of:
-
-                * US
-                * JP
-                * EU
-
-        and used by default the US when CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY was
-        set. We will remove this option once the standard Linux desktop catches
-        up with the new userspace APIs we have implemented.

 What:   PCMCIA control ioctl (needed for pcmcia-cs [cardmgr, cardctl])
-When:   November 2005
+When:   2.6.35/2.6.36
 Files:  drivers/pcmcia/: pcmcia_ioctl.c
 Why:    With the 16-bit PCMCIA subsystem now behaving (almost) like a
         normal hotpluggable bus, and with it using the default kernel
         infrastructure (hotplug, driver core, sysfs) keeping the PCMCIA
         control ioctl needed by cardmgr and cardctl from pcmcia-cs is
-        unnecessary, and makes further cleanups and integration of the
+        unnecessary and potentially harmful (it does not provide for
+        proper locking), and makes further cleanups and integration of the
         PCMCIA subsystem into the Linux kernel device driver model more
         difficult. The features provided by cardmgr and cardctl are either
         handled by the kernel itself now or are available in the new
         pcmciautils package available at
         http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/pcmcia/
