For example, the m68k architecture uses a number of internal APIs that no other

Ted Ts'o suggested that an ultimatum could be made: either the m68k architecture
stops using the old, deprecated timer API (for example) within one year or it is
removed from the kernel.
Which APIs are these exactly?
This kind of approach has worked well in the Debian community
Right, Debian stopped supporting m68k a long time ago ;-)
Thanks!
