Documentation/ABI: mark old kexec sysfs deprecated
The previous commit ("kexec: move sysfs entries to /sys/kernel/kexec") moved all existing kexec sysfs entries to a new location. The ABI document is updated to include a note about the deprecation of the old kexec sysfs entries. The following kexec sysfs entries are deprecated: - /sys/kernel/kexec_loaded - /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_loaded - /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size - /sys/kernel/crash_elfcorehdr_size - /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_cma_ranges Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20251118114507.1769455-3-sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Sourabh Jain <sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Aditya Gupta <adityag@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Hari Bathini <hbathini@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Jiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz> Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Mahesh J Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Pingfan Liu <piliu@redhat.com> Cc: Ritesh Harjani (IBM) <ritesh.list@gmail.com> Cc: Shivang Upadhyay <shivangu@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
