Subject: stuff ready to be deleted?


  i'm trying to keep track of kernel janitor projects that involve
removing dead content from the tree:

http://fsdev.net/wiki/index.php?title=Kernel_Janitor%27s_Todo_List

currently, the list contains the items:

    * 1 Legacy power management
    * 2 PCMCIA IOCTL support
    * 3 Traffic shaper
    * 4 Traffic policing
    * 5 Userspace queueing via NETLINK
    * 6 ebt: ulog support
    * 7 MOXA SmartIO support
    * 8 Old I2O ioctls
    * 9 Stallion drivers
    * 10 SDL RISCom/8 support
    * 11 Macintosh M68K support
    * 12 Commodore A2232 serial support
    * 13 CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING
    * 14 kernel_thread()

which of the above are legitimate candidates for removal?  which are
already underway in someone's local tree?  anything else that can
be added?  etc, etc.
