+What: CS5535/CS5536 obsolete GPIO driver
+When: June 2011
+Files: drivers/staging/cs5535_gpio/*
+Check: drivers/staging/cs5535_gpio/cs5535_gpio.c
+Why: A newer driver replaces this; it is drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c, and
+ integrates with the Linux GPIO subsystem. The old driver has been
+ moved to staging, and will be removed altogether around 2.6.40.
+ Please test the new driver, and ensure that the functionality you
+ need and any bugfixes from the old driver are available in the new
+ one.

+What: Legacy, non-standard chassis intrusion detection interface.
+When: June 2011
+Why: The adm9240, w83792d and w83793 hardware monitoring drivers have
+ legacy interfaces for chassis intrusion detection. A standard
+ interface has been added to each driver, so the legacy interface
+ can be removed.
