-What: find_trylock_page
-When: January 2007
-Why: The interface no longer has any callers left in the kernel. It
- is an odd interface (compared with other find_*_page functions), in
- that it does not take a refcount to the page, only the page lock.
- It should be replaced with find_get_page or find_lock_page if possible.
- This feature removal can be reevaluated if users of the interface
- cannot cleanly use something else.

What: Interrupt only SA_* flags
When: Januar 2007
