Nack!
This would break the numactl testsuite.
This seems slightly strange reason to me. Almost useless/deprecated feature removement broke ltp testsuite. But endusers never complained. Because they never use testcases for development. So, May I clarify your intention? To use Documention/feature-removal-schedule.txt solve your worry?
Personally, I haven't observed NUMA_INTERLEAVE_HIT is used on production environment. But, I also haven't
felt this feature is a code maintenance bottleneck. So, I'd like to just ask.
