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 Acked-by: Finn Thain <fthain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> for the pas16, t128 and dtc patches if you like. -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
