But, IMO, now is no suitable time. A thing like API removal should have been tested in linux-next, and we had plenty of time indeed for 2.6.28. > But currently sound/soc/at32/playpaq_wm8510.c still seems to use it. Yep, but don't be bothered to try to create a patch for that. There will be a unification patch for both at32 and at91, so clean-ups will be applied anyway later. thanks, Takashi
