        NCCI TTY device nodes. User space (pppdcapiplugin) works without
        noticing the difference.

+What:  KVM memory aliases support
+When:  July 2010
+Why:   Memory aliasing support is used for speeding up guest vga access
+       through the vga windows.
+
+       Modern userspace no longer uses this feature, so it's just bitrotted
+       code and can be removed with no impact.

+What:  KVM kernel-allocated memory slots
+When:  July 2010
+Why:   Since 2.6.25, kvm supports user-allocated memory slots, which are
+       much more flexible than kernel-allocated slots.  All current userspace
+       supports the newer interface and this code can be removed with no
+       impact.

+What:  KVM paravirt mmu host support
+When:  January 2011
+Why:   The paravirt mmu host support is slower than non-paravirt mmu, both
+       on newer and older hardware.  It is already not exposed to the guest,
+       and kept only for live migration purposes.
