But current openssh needs to support old kernels.

This is why this kind of obsoleting doesn't work well. It's not "update
your app" so much as "drop support for older stuff or start doing
complicated crap dependant on version"

and it's why for tiny amounts of code it is the *wrong* thing to force
obsolete stuff especially when it still doesn't seem to have been
properly marked for deprecation in the first place.
