That could indicate mature code, absent maintainer etc. It doesn't justify 
or explain code removal.

In this case, no-one seems to have the hardware needed to test the code, 
and no-one appears willing to do the conversion to the scsi_host_alloc() 
API. I think this justification should appear in the commit message.

On that basis, I would remove these drivers along with scsi_register() 
itself. Is there some reason to remove them earlier? It messes up my patch 
queue.

Either way, you may add my

for the pas16, t128 and dtc patches if you like.
