---------------------------
-What: i2c_adapter.dev
- i2c_adapter.list
+What: i2c_adapter.list
When: July 2007
-Why: Superfluous, given i2c_adapter.class_dev:
- * The "dev" was a stand-in for the physical device node that legacy
- drivers would not have; but now it's almost always present. Any
- remaining legacy drivers must upgrade (they now trigger warnings).
- * The "list" duplicates class device children.
- The delay in removing this is so upgraded lm_sensors and libsensors
- can get deployed. (Removal causes minor changes in the sysfs layout,
- notably the location of the adapter type name and parenting the i2c
- client hardware directly from their controller.)
+Why: Superfluous, this list duplicates the one maintained by the driver
+ core.

+What: i2c-ixp2000, i2c-ixp4xx and scx200_i2c drivers
+When: September 2007
+Why: Obsolete. The new i2c-gpio driver replaces all hardware-specific
+ I2C-over-GPIO drivers.
