I don't think we need to set a firm timeline for removing code from the
kernel at this point. What we can do is implement the new interfaces via
sysfs/configfs, and then make ioctl support a config option. Down the
line it will be evident if/when we can rip out the old code, but I see
that being years away.

Not removing code, just after a timeline, new patch which adding new
interface should go into configfs.
I start to look into this now, hope to compose a first version patch set
for comments in not too long time.

Sounds good - make sure to also consult with Shaohua how it likes to see it implemented on the kernel side.

Cheers,
Jes
