[PATCH 2/2] vfio/platform: Mark reset drivers for removal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While vfio-platform itself is on a reprieve from being removed[1],
these reset drivers don't support any current hardware, are not being
tested, and suggest a level of support that doesn't really exist.
Mark them for removal to surface any remaining user such that we can
potentially drop them and simplify the code if none appear.
