What:	Low Performance USB Block driver ("CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB")

When:	3.6

Why:	This driver provides support for USB storage devices like "USB

	sticks". As of now, it is deactivated in Debian, Fedora and

        Ubuntu. All current users can switch over to usb-storage

        (CONFIG_USB_STORAGE) which only drawback is the additional SCSI

        stack.

What:	get_robust_list syscall

When:	2013

Why:	There appear to be no production users of the get_robust_list syscall,
