From 3b70b2e5fcf6315eb833a1bcc2b810bdc75484ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Len Brown Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2011 15:08:48 -0400 Subject: x86 idle floppy: deprecate disable_hlt() Plan to remove floppy_disable_hlt in 2012, an ancient workaround with comments that it should be removed. This allows us to remove clutter and a run-time branch from the idle code. WARN_ONCE() on invocation until it is removed. cc: x86@kernel.org cc: stable@kernel.org # .39.x Signed-off-by: Len Brown --- Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt') diff --git a/Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt b/Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt index b3f35e5f9c95..5540615ac26c 100644 --- a/Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt +++ b/Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt @@ -6,6 +6,14 @@ be removed from this file. --------------------------- +What: x86 floppy disable_hlt +When: 2012 +Why: ancient workaround of dubious utility clutters the + code used by everybody else. +Who: Len Brown + +--------------------------- + What: PRISM54 When: 2.6.34 -- cgit v1.2.1
