Some of the application software was released before 2009 and ended up
using these proc entries from downstream kernel. The newer lib/app
using RDS don't use these. Unfortunately lot of customer still use
Oracle 9, 10, 11 which were released before 2007 and run these apps
on modern kernels.
So those apps are using proc entries that were never upstream...
Sorry, this is completely and utterly inappropriate.
Agree. Unfortunately one of the legacy application library didn't
get upgraded even after the ports were registered with IANA.
Oracle 11 is still very active release and hence this patch.
It is fine to drop $subject patch from this series.
