119What: Video4Linux obsolete drivers using V4L1 API
120When: kernel 2.6.38
121Files: drivers/staging/cpia/*
122Check: drivers/staging/cpia/cpia.c
123Why: There are some drivers still using V4L1 API, despite all efforts we've done
124 to migrate. Those drivers are for obsolete hardware that the old maintainer
125 didn't care (or not have the hardware anymore), and that no other developer
126 could find any hardware to buy. They probably have no practical usage today,
127 and people with such old hardware could probably keep using an older version
128 of the kernel. Those drivers will be moved to staging on 2.6.37 and, if nobody
129 care enough to port and test them with V4L2 API, they'll be removed on 2.6.38.
