SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED, RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED deprecated or not?




from the file Documentation/spinlocks.txt:

"UPDATE March 21 2005 Amit Gud <gud@xxxxxxx>

Macros SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED and RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED are deprecated and
will be removed soon."

but it seems that there's still a whole lot of those
SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED macros being used. so are they deprecated or not?
just curious.
