Subject: [PATCH] Introduce CONFIG_RH_DISABLE_DEPRECATED

Message-id: <20191113144431.9403-2-labbott@redhat.com>
Patchwork-id: 286080
O-Subject: [ARK INTERNAL PATCHv2 1/4] [redhat] Introduce CONFIG_RH_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
Bugzilla:
RH-Acked-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com>

For many drivers that RHEL doesn't want to support, we've typically deleted
PCI ids from the tree. This precludes those drivers from being used at all
which is fine for RHEL but a problem if we want to use a similar source base
for Fedora. Instead of just deleting IDs, introduce a config
CONFIG_RH_DISABLE_DEPRECATED. This way RHEL can remove IDs while still allowing
kernels to be built with the option off from the same source.

Upstream Status: RHEL only
