The z3fold compressed pages allocator is rarely used, most users use
zsmalloc. The only disadvantage of zsmalloc in comparison is the
dependency on MMU, and zbud is a more common option for !MMU as it was the
default zswap allocator for a long time.
Historically, zsmalloc had worse latency than zbud and z3fold but offered
better memory savings. This is no longer the case as shown by a simple
recent analysis [1]. That analysis showed that z3fold does not have any
advantage over zsmalloc or zbud considering both performance and memory
usage. In a kernel build test on tmpfs in a limited cgroup, z3fold took
3% more time and used 1.8% more memory. The latency of zswap_load() was
7% higher, and that of zswap_store() was 10% higher. Zsmalloc is better
in all metrics.
Moreover, z3fold apparently has latent bugs, which was made noticeable by
a recent soft lockup bug report with z3fold [2]. Switching to zsmalloc
not only fixed the problem, but also reduced the swap usage from 6~8G to
1~2G. Other users have also reported being bitten by mistakenly enabling
z3fold.
Other than hurting users, z3fold is repeatedly causing wasted engineering
effort. Apart from investigating the above bug, it came up in multiple
development discussions (e.g. [3]) as something we need to handle, when
there aren't any legit users (at least not intentionally).
The natural course of action is to deprecate z3fold, and remove in a few
cycles if no objections are raised from active users. Next on the list
should be zbud, as it offers marginal latency gains at the cost of huge
memory waste when compared to zsmalloc. That one will need to wait until
zsmalloc does not depend on MMU.
Rename the user-visible config option from CONFIG_Z3FOLD to
CONFIG_Z3FOLD_DEPRECATED so that users with CONFIG_Z3FOLD=y get a new
prompt with explanation during make oldconfig. Also, remove
CONFIG_Z3FOLD=y from defconfigs.

One the one hand, it's marked EXPERIMENTAL since 2017, and looks like
there are no users since then, and no testers and no developers, it's
just not active at all.
On the other hand, even if the config is disabled, there are still many
fields in throtl_grp and throtl_data and many functions that are only
used for throtl low.
At last, currently blk-throtl is initialized during disk initialization,
and destroyed during disk removal, and it exposes many functions to be
called directly from block layer.
Remove throtl low to make code much more cleaner and follow up work much
easier.

bpfilter was supposed to convert iptables filtering rules into
BPF programs on the fly, from the kernel, through a usermode
helper. The base code for the UMH was introduced in 2018, and
couple of attempts (2, 3) tried to introduce the BPF program
generate features but were abandoned.
bpfilter now sits in a kernel tree unused and unusable, occasionally
causing confusion amongst Linux users (4, 5).
As bpfilter is now developed in a dedicated repository on GitHub (6),
it was suggested a couple of times this year (LSFMM/BPF 2023,
LPC 2023) to remove the deprecated kernel part of the project. This
is the purpose of this patch.

Commit a2225d931f75 ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs")
promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.
Get rid of it mechanically:
git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'
Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub. Anybody who hasn't
regenerated their config file in the last five years will need to just
get the new name right when they do.
