I'm not sure the old API is that important. This isn't something programs (third party, kernel utils don't count) rely on. Most users would switch to the new stack immediately anyway.
It could probably be a separate compatibility module, the core stack probably don't have to know about it. The last to worry about I'd say. -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
