Why can't we just sweep the tree for all of these now, fix them up, and
then delete these fields and be done with it?

Same for the other ones, putting warnings in the kernel log files
doesn't work at all for getting people to fix up their code (see
examples of scsi log messages being there for _years_ about obsolete
driver interfaces being used.)
