As of now, it is deactivated in Debian, Fedora and + Ubuntu. All current users can switch over to usb-storage + (CONFIG_USB_STORAGE) which only drawback is the additional SCSI + stack. +Who: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior + +---------------------------- + +What: kmap_atomic(page, km_type) +When: 3.5 +Why: The old kmap_atomic() with two arguments is deprecated, we only + keep it for backward compatibility for few cycles and then drop it. +Who: Cong Wang + +---------------------------- + +What: get_robust_list syscall +When: 2013 +Why: There appear to be no production users of the get_robust_list syscall, + and it runs the risk of leaking address locations, allowing the bypass + of ASLR. It was only ever intended for debugging, so it should be + removed. +Who: Kees Cook + +---------------------------- + +What: setitimer accepts user NULL pointer (value) +When: 3.6 +Why: setitimer is not returning -EFAULT if user pointer is NULL. This + violates the spec. +Who: Sasikantha Babu + + ---------------------------- + + What: V4L2_CID_HCENTER, V4L2_CID_VCENTER V4L2 controls + When: 3.7 + Why: The V4L2_CID_VCENTER, V4L2_CID_HCENTER controls have been deprecated + for about 4 years and they are not used by any mainline driver. + There are newer controls (V4L2_CID_PAN*, V4L2_CID_TILT*) that provide + similar functionality. + Who: Sylwester Nawrocki
