+What: print_fn_descriptor_symbol()
+When: October 2009
+Why: The %pF vsprintf format provides the same functionality in a
+ simpler way. print_fn_descriptor_symbol() is deprecated but
+ still present to give out-of-tree modules time to change.

+What: /sys/o2cb symlink
+When: January 2010
+Why: /sys/fs/o2cb is the proper location for this information - /sys/o2cb
+ exists as a symlink for backwards compatibility for old versions of
+ ocfs2-tools. 2 years should be sufficient time to phase in new versions
+ which know to look in /sys/fs/o2cb.
+Who: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com

+
+What: SCTP_GET_PEER_ADDRS_NUM_OLD, SCTP_GET_PEER_ADDRS_OLD,
+ SCTP_GET_LOCAL_ADDRS_NUM_OLD, SCTP_GET_LOCAL_ADDRS_OLD
+When: June 2009
+Why: A newer version of the options have been introduced in 2005 that
+ removes the limitions of the old API. The sctp library has been
+ converted to use these new options at the same time. Any user
+ space app that directly uses the old options should convert to using
+ the new options.

+What: Ability for non root users to shm_get hugetlb pages based on mlock
+ resource limits
+When: 2.6.31
+Why: Non root users need to be part of /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_shm_group or
+ have CAP_IPC_LOCK to be able to allocate shm segments backed by
+ huge pages. The mlock based rlimit check to allow shm hugetlb is
+ inconsistent with mmap based allocations. Hence it is being
+ deprecated.
+Who: Ravikiran Thirumalai <kiran@scalex86.org>
+
+---------------------------
+
+What: CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON
+When: January 2009
+Why: This option was introduced just to allow older lm-sensors userspace
+ to keep working over the upgrade to 2.6.26. At the scheduled time of
+ removal fixed lm-sensors (2.x or 3.x) should be readily available.
