The old "ramdisk=<ram_size>" has been changed to

i just the other day submitted a patch to remove that backward
compatibility, and the m68k portion of it has already been acked by
geert uytterhoeven.
I couldn't find it. Can you provide a pointer to it?
Could you mention it in feature-removal-schedule.txt? (People check that for
warning of upcoming changes that impact existing code. They may not notice
something elsewhere after they've got it working...)
The same objection applies to this as to the previous one. In that
respect, an Ack from a maintainer of an almost unused architecture is
meaningless (sorry, Geert.)
Peter, what are you objecting to, Rob's comment, Robert's comment,
Robert's patch, or my patch?
Robert's patch.
