For example, from r336976:
| Index: sys/dev/jedec_ts/jedec_ts.c
| ===================================================================
| --- sys/dev/jedec_ts/jedec_ts.c (revision 336975)
| +++ sys/dev/jedec_ts/jedec_ts.c (revision 336976)
| @@ -247,6 +247,9 @@
| CTLTYPE_INT | CTLFLAG_RD | CTLFLAG_MPSAFE, dev, 0,
| ts_temp_sysctl, "IK4", "Current temperature");
|
| + gone_in_dev(dev, 12,
| + "jedec_ts(4) driver; see COMPATIBILITY section of jedec_dimm(4)");
| +
| return (0);
| }
So you might add
gone_in_dev(dev, 12,
"drm2(4) driver; use one of the graphics/drm-* drivers instead");
Or something along those lines.
Hope that helps,
