Sorry that I didn't notice this series. (It would be helpful if call out
the removal of hw_compat_2_* will be in a separate series in the cover
letter.)
Actually looking for it (sorry, this was quite some time now) I realized
I did the work up to removing 4.0:

At some point I had too many series waiting for review so I stopped
posting (otherwise having to constantly rebase / repost drains too
much energy on both author and reviewers). I might post them once
the prerequisites are all merged.
Good news is that the removal of PC machine 2.4 and 2.5 is merged. Hope
the remaining can be merged soon.
Regards,
Phil.
