+What:	filemap_nopage, filemap_populate
+When:	April 2007
+Why:	These legacy interfaces no longer have any callers in the kernel and
+	any functionality provided can be provided with filemap_fault. The
+	removal schedule is short because they are a big maintainence burden
+	and have some bugs.
+Who:	Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>

+What:	vm_ops.populate, install_page
+When:	April 2007
+Why:	These legacy interfaces no longer have any callers in the kernel and

+Who:	Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>
+
+---------------------------
+
+What:	vm_ops.nopage
+When:	February 2008, provided in-kernel callers have been converted
+Why:	This interface is replaced by vm_ops.fault, but it has been around
+	forever, is used by a lot of drivers, and doesn't cost much to
+	maintain.
+Who:	Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>

 What:	Interrupt only SA_* flags
 When:	September 2007
 Why:	The interrupt related SA_* flags are replaced by IRQF_* to move them
