Subject: schedule check_region for removal ?

its apparently been deprecated for a long time
http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/6/12/100

But its still used, notably in drivers/scsi/BusLogic.c

And jumping the gun a bit, theres a number of "got rid of check_region" 
comments,
which now belong in the changelog. Do these also get deleted ?
