IA64 is still using the drm-4.0 code, as are the (possibly obsolete)
-ac kernels. The drm 4.0 makefiles are a pain in the neck and I want
to get rid of them asap. The SiS direct render is only for drm 4.1 so
now is a good time to question if 4.0 is still required.
How long do people plan to keep drm 4.0 code in their versions of the
kernel?

You mean for 2.5? I don't think there is a good reason to keep
drm-4.0 there. For 2.4, we should keep it because there might be
folks out there that rely on it.

Good. I will drop drm 4.0 support from kbuild 2.5.
