I have no objection to this patch set, but I'll echo Will's comment
that having git blame identify who wrote the code is useful.

However, removing old cruft is also a useful exercise, as it keeps
things simpler (because we're not carrying around lots of excess
baggage.)  So, I think on balance it's worth the churn.

Joe, any chance you could add a KernelVersion: tag somewhere in the
commit message and throw it at patches@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx so it doesn't
get lost?

Thanks.
