For now I have just added some text in the feature-removal file and
disabled VMI by default in the Kconfig, the reason that needs to be
done is because "Live Migration" of a VMI enabled VM to future
products which don't support VMI will not work, so its important that
newer distros keep this disabled, if they want seamless migration
that is.

btw the "default" in KConfig tends to be totally ignored by distro
kernel maintainers... please don't assume that just because some default
is set in KConfig it has ANY impact on what shows up in distributions.

So, are you saying that we should be doing something else along with
toggling it off in the Kconfig ? 
We have already informed most of the distro folks about this deprecation
so I think we should be okay there, but if there is something else that
should be done, do let me know.

Thanks,
