have been deprecated
        There are newer controls (V4L2_CID_PAN*, V4L2_CID_TILT*) that provide
        similar functionality.

+What:  Remove the backward compatibility V4L2 selections target and selections
+       flags definitions
+When:  3.8
+Why:   The regular V4L2 selections and the subdev selection API originally
+       defined distinct names for the target rectangles and flags - V4L2_SEL_*
+       and V4L2_SUBDEV_SEL_*. Although, it turned out that the meaning of these
+       target rectangles is virtually identical and the APIs were consolidated
+       to use single set of names - V4L2_SEL_*. This consolidation didn't
+       change the ABI in any way. Alias definitions were created for the
+       original ones to avoid any instabilities in the user space interface.
+       After few cycles these comptibility definitions will be removed.
