In [1], Christoph Hellwig has proposed to remove the wrappers in
include/linux/pci-dma-compat.h.
Some reasons why this API should be removed have been given by Julia
Lawall in [2].
Finally, Arnd Bergmann reminded that the documentation was updated 11 years
ago to only describe the modern linux/dma-mapping.h interfaces and mark the
old bus-specific ones as no longer recommended, see commit 216bf58f40
("Documentation: convert PCI-DMA-mapping.txt to use the generic DMA API").
A coccinelle script has been used to perform the needed transformation
Only relevant parts are given below.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
