There are no warnings, as the macro just won't be used by common code
anymore.

But the commit is from July 3rd, and the pull request to Linus for
it was merged on the same day.  I can't see how it could have been
in linux-next for long.  It certainly wasn't in the last linux-next
release that I looked at before the long weekend (the July 30 one)
