Christoph mentioned several other trees that this depends on, and
those would likely be in linux-next, but not yet in Linus' tree.  The
above poking around is from the tip of Linus' tree, which was the
wrong place for me to look.

But I did the same in current linux-next, 71941773e143 ("Add
linux-next specific files for 20220310"), and still found quite a few
uses.  Some are in comments, printks, coccinelle scripts, etc.  I
would assume we'd want to remove them all?
