@ -437,3 +437,13 @@ Why: Superseded by tdfxfb. I2C/DDC support used to live in a separate
driver but this caused driver conflicts.

----------------------------
What: CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE
When: 2.6.32
Why: Remove the old legacy 32bit machine check code. This has been
superseded by the newer machine check code from the 64bit port,
but the old version has been kept around for easier testing. Note this
doesn't impact the old P5 and WinChip machine check handlers.
