[PATCH] update OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER schedule and dependencies
Update the schedule for the removal of drivers depending on
OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER as follows:
- adjust OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER dependencie
- from the release of 2.6.16 till the release of 2.6.17:
approx. two months for users to report problems with the ALSA
drivers for the same hardware
- after the release of 2.6.17 (and before 2.6.18):
remove the subset of drivers marked at OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER without
known regressions in the ALSA drivers for the same hardware
Additionally, correct some OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER dependencies.
A rationale of the changes is in
