-NT4-style replication based net commands removed
-------------------------------------------------
-
-The following commands and sub-commands have been removed from the
-"net" utility:
-
-net rpc samdump
-net rpc vampire ldif
-
-Also, replicating from a real NT4 domain with "net rpc vampire" and
-"net rpc vampire keytab" has been removed.
-
-The NT4-based commands were accidentially broken in 2013, and nobody
-noticed the breakage. So instead of fixing them including tests (which
-would have meant writing a server for the protocols, which we don't
-have) we decided to remove them.
-
-For the same reason, the "samsync", "samdeltas" and "database_redo"
-commands have been removed from rpcclient.
-
-"net rpc vampire keytab" from Active Directory domains continues to be
-supported.

-vfs_aio_linux module removed
-----------------------------

-The current Linux kernel aio does not match what Samba would
-do. Shipping code that uses it leads people to false
-assumptions. Samba implements async I/O based on threads by default,
-there is no special module required to see benefits of read and write
