Subject[PATCH] Add feature-removal-schedule.txt removal to feature-removal-schedule.txt
From
Date
The file feature-removal-schedule.txt is ignored by most people except
for people that add to it. It's more of a global TODO list for
developers than being anything useful by anyone.

Add a feature removal of removing the feature-removal-schedule.txt.

+What: Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt
+When: v3.8
+Why: Developers add their TODO list here, and no one else reads it.
+ It causes a lot of silly conflicts that annoy Linus.
+ There are better ways to remove features than adding your crap here.
+ Add a printk() or 'CONFIG_FOO default n' and see who complains.
+ This file has been proven to be absolutely useless.
