Joe rightly points out that we should be using the "Obsolete" status for
these two subsystems.

Also I got the path name wrong for the wusbcore tree.

Even with that change, I don't see get_maintainers.pl tell me I
shouldn't be sending a patch in for this area:


$ cat x.patch

Am I missing something?

Nor should you.  It's checkpatch that should warn.

Ah, wrong tool.  Yes, it does, let's see if anyone actually notices that
when sending checkpatch changes for these files in the future :)
