That summary looks incomplete to me. Every time a kernel API is modified 
that is used by the RiscPC code, the RiscPC code has to be modified too.
Removing the RiscPC code makes modifying kernel APIs easier. A recent
example is available here: "[PATCH v5] scsi: core: Drop
Scsi_Host.default_lock"
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/20260831095821.3486994-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com/).
